Title: RIAA Thinks LimeWire Owes $75 Trillion in Damages

The music industry wants LimeWire to pay up to $75 trillion in damages after losing a copyright infringement claim. That's right . . . $75 trillion. Manhattan federal Judge Kimba Wood has labeled this request "absurd."

You're telling me. To put that number into perspective (I bet a lot of you didn't even know "trillion" was a real number), the U.S. GDP is around 14 trillion -- less than one fifth of what the music industry is requesting. Heck, the GDP of the entire world is between 59 and 62 trillion. That's right, the music industry wants LimeWire to pay more money than exists in the entire world.

Basically starting a topic with a quote and a link and a reactionary picture provides insufficient content and usually always leads to topics turning into this stuff. As for the ban evaders, you are not being sly about it or giving any good reason for you to be on here again.
