GideonGallery, can you comment on the 72 trillion dollar lawsuit against limewire?
http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2012/...r-72-trillion/
LOS ANGELES (CBS) ? The Recording Industry Association of America is reportedly suing now-defunct music downloading service LimeWire for $72 trillion. Yes, we said trillion. ?An award based on the RIAA calculations would amount to more money than the entire music industry has made since Edison?s invention of the phonograph in 1877,? Judge Kimba Wood states in documents filed at the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. In the suit, the RIAA says more than 11,000 songs have each been illegally downloaded thousands of times. It?s seeking compensation for each download, but with the estimated worth of the entire planet being roughly $60 trillion, RIAA certainly won?t be collecting that much cash. However, LimeWire could still be ordered to pay up more than $1 billion.  |

I wonder what the collections guy would say on the phone "hi Bob, this is Ronald with BBB Collections, I'm calling about your overdue bill of 72 Trillion Dollars. Will you be able to pay that today?"

Again...just for show. Who's got Trillions, let alone a NOW DEFUNCT company with NO FUCKING MONEY?
This is just free publicity. Nothing more. Nothing less. |

Also, how do you explain it on your credit report? "Bob, we would love to sell you this 1992 Toyota Tercel. It's a really nice hatchback. You've got your proof of employment and that's good. You've got your $300.00 down payment and thats good. One little thing, when we ran your credit report, we noticed this 72 Trillion Dollar thing, anyway.... what I wanted to ask was, can you pay that off right now so I can get the loan approved?"

Yes. More that The entire world's GDP is a great amount to sue for and be taken seriously. The only thing worse would be if the company they are suing had ceased trading...
Oh wait. |
