End of Lawsuits?

Just to update, the RIAA has successfully sued that Minneapolis woman, Jammie Thomas-Rasset. She was accused of illegally downloading music and was found guilty of violating the copyrights on 24 songs and is liable for $1.92M or $80,000 per song The damages seem excessive. These songs could be bought, especially since those same 24 songs (by Gloria Estefan, Journey, Sheryl Crow, and Green Day, among others) can be had for under $25 on iTunes. There's no way they're ever going to get that ridiculous amount of money. As an injury attorney, it would be nice to get 1/3 of that amount.
