Another break happened today in the RIAA?s case against Boston University student Joel Tenenbaum, as the $675k fine was reduced by 90%. The judge in the case criticised the RIAA and held that the jury?s damages were unconstitutional. Even the reduced fine is described as ?severe, even harsh? by the District Judge.

this is the kid who is actually guilty and admitted it
and this follows the reduction against Jammie Thomas
http://freakbits.com/riaa-victims-1-...-to-54000-0123
considering that the 24 songs she was convicted of were in her over 1000 cds she owned.
And she basically used kazza as a format shifting method
(rather then hunting thru 1000s of cd she owned and personally ripping the songs to mp3s she just searched and found them pre ripped on kazza)
that one should have been thrown out completely.
