Woman ordered to pay $40k for 37 songs she downloaded in her teens -- Via jonathanturley.org, through @maxkennerly [Quote]
the industry has succeeded in nailing Whitney Harper who was between 14-16 years old when she downloaded 37 songs. The Court of Appeals increased the penalties against her — amounting to as much as $40,000.
While the parties agreed that she would be liable for $200 a song (under the “innocent” downloading figure), the industry said it would seek $750 if she challenged them on appeal.
