OUCH! Something to think about: will our courts ever rule against a local like this? Scary thought right?
"MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (KABC) -- A Minnesota mother of four is facing a nearly $2 million fine for illegally sharing music she downloaded on her computer.
A jury ruled that 32-year-old Jammie Thomas-Rasset owes $1.92 million to four major music labels after she downloaded and shared 24 songs by artists such as Green Day, Janet Jackson, Godsmack and Richard Marx.
The jury decision amounts to $80,000 per song.
Thomas was found guilty of similar charges in 2007 and fined $220,000 in damages. But that verdict was thrown out because an error in jury instructions, paving the way for a retrial and Thursday's ruling."
