    I would have something to say, but one of the comments in the article said it better than I could.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if an author wanted to waive there claim to the settlement and look for more, but arguing for damages is a hard hurdle. Depending on the local laws you may need actual examples, or a measurable decrease in sales. Fuck this ask for forgiveness shit

      Definitely ridiculous.

      However, nobody is going to prison for making a backup of an album they own.

      Like why undermine your own argument in that way? Weird.
