“Jammie Thomas-Rassett, known as the ‘Download Martyr’ for reasons that will soon become abundantly clear, downloaded 24 songs on the late music sharing service Kazaa, including such gems as Def Leppard’s ‘Pour Some Sugar on Me.’ The case against Thomas-Rassett was the first major file-sharing case to go to trial, and the 8th Circuit ruled on Tuesday that she must pay a total of $220,000 in damages, or $9,250 per song.”
