I see, I've just not seen a court giving up 'usage' that 'easily' proves a case. What would they give up? Low level packet analysis that "proves" a file that reports to be an infringing file went through her router? Or physically prove the file is on her HDD? And that the file is what it claims it is?
Just curious as to what is "proof".

Well... Like most normal people, not in law - I don't keep proof, citations or records of shit that doesn't directly mean anything to me. I just read the articles and move on...
Anyway... they sent letters to the people directly, they got the address from the ISP. IP's don't have a home address and they can't be sued... Once court proceeds on, getting more information is VERY normal.
I've never read an IP case that didn't get various details through various subpoenas, most based on users & ip's, all of which was used in the case.
