I've downloaded albums I already own simply because I didn't feel like ripping them myself. Definitely agree with this ruling.

Restitution is important, though. Maybe with smaller judgments awarded against people found guilty, there will be less reason to sue in the first place.

Really? I'd rather rip my own CDs and set the ripping settings myself. Although one time I downloaded an album for which my CD was too scratched to play any more.

I'm not saying I don't rip myself, but sometimes I just don't want to bother. Something for my iPod, perhaps.
