Student Fined $675,000 For Sharing 30 Songs

Teenager, Joel Tenenbaum, admitted to sharing 30 songs illegally and was originally fined $150,000 per song. He managed to negotiate the price down to $22,500 per song but he still has to pay $675,000 in total.

Unlike other unfortunate people, Tenenbaum has not said he will refuse to pay the $675,000 fine so it looks like a victory for the RIAA. 

The RIAA pointed out that the money will go towards more lawsuits and not artists.

Remember, DONT PIRATE SONGS OR THE RIAA WILL BE AT YOUR DOORSTEP.
