RIAA wins: family has to pay $7k.
by gatekeeper Thu 30 Apr 2009, 8:22 am
The most loved organization in the world, the RIAA, 
has won a case against a New York family for illegally downloading music.
The case was originally filed against Patricia Santangelo, 46, a mother of five, who resides in Wappingers Falls, N.Y but was later dropped and re-filled against her two sons.
Rather than taking the settlement agreement the two sons and mother decided to fight the RIAA and nearly $15,000 was raised by online sympathizers to help fight the industry. The result, nearly 4 years later, is that the family will have to pay $7000.00 for songs downloaded that included “‘MMMBop’ by Hanson and ‘Beat It’ by Michael Jackson.
