You might want to follow your own advice. That url is general information covering Australia wide. As I have previously stated, in NSW Small Claims there are agreed legal costs that can be claimed and these include around $6??(600+) in maxiumum legal costs, all filing and lodgement fees and all expert witness costs.

The loss to a copyright holder of a single breach of copyright on a typical movie is probably in the region of $15 at the very most. If they start legal proceedings, and the infringer makes an offer of settlement of that amount, the copyright holder risks ending up covering both their own costs and those of the infringer, if they don't accept the offer, and instead pursue litigation. The copyright holder could seek punitive damages, but there's no certainty they'd get it. Sylvia.

And even that will not happen when they can not establish that he would have paid for it if he had not downloaded it.

What the "great brains trust" that exists here has failed to comprehend is the power of logging. Log everything that they can, log over a few years and hey bingo, 10 titles, 100 titles, 1,000 titles and you have a figure worth pursuing them over. And I wonder how many of you have any idea what "having nothing" means to the Sherif's dept? Basically, you can keep your bedding, basic kitchen items and your work tools. If your standard of furniture is the worst of the kerbside trash, then they will not bother removing that either. |
