I’m guessing that once the members of Rage find out that their song was one of the ones that got this kid hit with this lawsuit and fine, they’ll be pretty miffed.

boy, if you were on KazAa, you really blew it, didn’t you? why have NONE of these lawsuits targeted limewire or soulseek or bittorrent users?

That looks like the playlist of the token stoner at the frat house.

what a terrible defense. i feel for the kid, but he fought the wrong fight.
what’s most ridiculous is that most of these songs were fucking radio singles. broadcast to the world for free on the radio constantly. he should have played dumb, and made the case that there’s no harm caused by sharing music that’s ubiquitous and freely broadcast. there’s legal precedent for that.
citing fair use is hippie shit.

2003? Looks like a 1999 playlist. Guy needs to have someone make him a new mix.
