There was scant evidence that she did it in the beginning.

making her pay that amount is as ridiculous as sentencing someone to 4 life sentences.theyll never be able to actually pay/serve it.
why not just say,pay us half your wages for a year.thats pretty sufficient.
imagine if it was Bono or Micheal Jacksons tracks she had shared(or even some Judas Priest).....'its not a big deal' :lol:
as for the american life sentence,why dont they just say "you will rot in jail until you die" rather than "you will serve 325years with no chance for parole".(unless they are a demon or vampire or other immortal being,in which case,they should do the full 325years for each person they killed/raped/bloodsucked)

shame this woman doesnt live in soft touch UK,she could have paid it back in weekly installments of £1.

as for the UK 'life' sentence,its a fucking joke,as if 25yrs(aka life)was little enough,they are usually out after 12-20 odd.
the judge should say "you will be sentenced to life,but dont worry its not till you die,its just 25yrs which you probably wont even have to serve,as theres not much space in the jails and we believe in letting cunts go free early to either re-offend or 'turn thier life around' with a new identity and address(all for free)while the victims are still in mourning"

I doubt the companies care, breaking their laws/copyright is breaking it. It's not like they'll go on people easy because they aren't well off. If someone was a millionaire i doubt they'd download music in the first place.
