The $9,250 MP3

If you could choose between paying either 99 cents or $9,250 for that newly released Flying Burrito Brothers tune, which would you pick?

Unfortunately for Jammie Thomas, she doesn't have that choice. The Department of Justice has ruled that $9,250 per song is a fair price for Thomas to pay for the 24 songs she downloaded from Kazaa. This means she now owes the RIAA a grand total of $222,000 for her infraction. Holy crap!

Let's hope they were 24 really good songs.
