I was wondering that myself. Out of those $1000, how many mp3s do you get? Besides, $1000 is not the same everywhere. For example, until this December and for the last eleven years, US$ 1 = 0.999 Pesos, but now US$ 1 = 3.60 pesos, so a CD that used to cost US$ 20 now it costs US$ 5.55 (but it still costs 20 pesos).

Another thing, how far can an US law affect me? AFAIK, you can't arrest me or fine me for something that I did here, as I'm not inside the US.
