allofmp3.com sued for $1.65 TRILLION USD

RIAA sues allofmp3.com for copyright infraction in New York. They are going for the maximum penalty afforded by the law…$150K per infraction. That comes to $1.65 trillion USD.

How they can sue a Moscow based company in New York escapes me, but I’m sure the RIAA lawyers found a loophole to exploit.

The $1.65 trillion USD claim just illustrates very poignantly how ridiculous the laws governing copyright violations are.
