In 2009, Capitol Records sued Jammie Thomas Rasset for damages after she was found liable for copyright violations when she illegally downloaded 24 songs off the Internet. Apparently, in addition to downloading the songs, Thomas-Rasset was involved in a peer-to-peer network and was additionally allowing Capitol's songs to be downloaded from her computer to other individuals'computers. In other words, Thomas-Rasset was distributing copyrighted material without permission from the holder of the copyrights. Ultimately, Capitol Records was suing for monetary damages. An award of $2 million (in response only to the 24 songs) was the expected decision of the court. However, Thomas Rasset argued that $2 million was an excessive award for the copyright infringement of 24 songs. How do you believe this case was decided? Why do you think so?
