In case you don't know what this was about, today there was a woman that was charged $80,000 for each song she downloaded and shared over Kazaa, there were 24 songs that she was charged for.
Okay, so I have mixed feelings about this. One one side, the woman technically was stealing so I supposed she should be charged and fined. But on the other side, illegal downloading of music is part of most internet users life. The music industry is not set up so we can be all expected to pay $1 or more for each song we download. Millions of Americans are involved with this, so how is it fair for her to be the only one charged. Also, I think what they are fining her is outrageous, I mean 80,000 dollars for each song, CRAZY! If the government is going to fine her that, they should catch everyone else who is illegally downloading and do the same.
So what do you think, feel free to share your opinions!
