A unanimous jury in Minnesota decided on October 4 that Jammie Thomas Thomas is liable for infringing 24 recordings shared over peer-to-peer service Kazaa. Six labels sued for infringement of 24 recordings, a sample of the 1,702 audio files they claimed Thomas shared over Kazaa. Thomas denied that she was involved in any file sharing. The jury didn’t believe her and awarded the labels $9,250 per recording, finding that Thomas willfully infringed the labels’ recordings.http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/content_display/industry/e3i467fe4563bdea28e0fba38fd92a73b5e
