So I actually read the news article bout all this and found out where all that money is going...and am now thoroughly appalled. Believe it or not, but the RIAA actually ended up with a NET LOSS of $325,000 getting this thing through since they had to sink over 1 million into all the court fees. In the article they explicitly said that none of the money would go to any of the artists and that the "damage" money would go toward financing more anti-piracy ads.
...WHAT MONEY!? There's none left! You butt stains ultimately just spent a fortune simply to ruin somebody's life all for the single purpose of, as you stated, "setting an example"
You...Inhumane...EVIL...People.
Mr. Tennabaum, you deserve to be punished for your crime, but not like this. This is just wrong on so many levels.
