The Record Industry Loses It’s Damn Mind

Record Labels Request $75 Trillion in Damages from Limewire

…when asked to estimate the damages Limewire should be held liable for. Their answer was $400 billion on the conservative side, and as much as $75 trillion on the high end.

If this doesn’t show that the record labels are completely full of crap I don’t know what does. They have absolutely no concept of reality. As the article states the entire music industry hasn’t made that much money.
