Schoolgirl Settles With RIAA

Schoolgirl Settles With RIAA: “Brianna Lahara won’t be sharing music files anymore. Less than a day after the recording industry announced its lawsuits, the 12-year-old Manhattan schoolgirl and her mother settled their case for $2,000.” How to use the legal system for extortion rather than fact finding and determination of damages. It used to be people were presumed innocent until proven guilty. How many other defendants will not be able to afford high priced lawyers to go up against the well-funded legal talent of the RIAA? Right now, the RIAA is effectively judge, jury, and hangman. Wonder if CD sales will improve? From Wired.
