Default WARNING! Fines coming.....

I live in Dayton Ohio. 2 of my 4 local TV stations just reported about several people from our area being sued for downloading music. One of these people was using Limewire. This person is being sued by the National Association of Recording Artists for 70,000 !! She has only used Limewire and has downloaded a little over 6,000 songs. Needless to say, she is devastated! The reporter said this is happening more and more everyday and that the Recording Artists are generally setteling out of court for 3 to 4 thousand dollars. Do any of us have that kind of money lying around. This woman thought she was "protected" from any type of legal action because she had paid 18 dollars to limewire for their "pro" version. Not so. Beware !
