There's an interesting precedent being set here and perhaps it's not one the
recording industry really want to be setting.

In future p2p lawsuits the defendant needs only show that they 'put aside'
the normal retail price of whatever they downloaded and are happy to pay up
now that the copyright holder has been found, following the CRIA's own
example. Sweet. I imagine Jammie Thomas would have loved to have had this
option.

Or am I missing something?
