I beg to differ with you on this point. They can put 50 people in one single court filing. Say 30% of those people do not respond. Then they receive a default judgement for the entire amount they sued for.
For those that do respond. They will either have to pay a lawyer 10,000 Dollars to a lawyer or maybe half of that to settle. Or atleast that is what other organizations do right now.
So far as those that think it is safe to download the songs without anything bad happening to them. I would say wait. I have not a doubt they will start going after you individually for downloads.
Sueing has become a way for companies to turn a profit in a tough U.S. economy.
I myself speak back to recording industry the only way I can. I stopped purcashing their cd\'s.
