30 million kronor is around 4.2 mil USD. I'm guessing that's not going to happen. I lost track of the story shortly after they were found guilty. Did they get scooped up by the police or are they in refuge somewhere? I applaud these gents for standing so tall against their attackers, even against the threat of a judgment like this. It's just a shame that the music industry is still wasting time on issues like these. Thank god I wasn't arrested for sharing cassette tapes in my early teens.

In Sweden, I think the punishment isn't actually enforced until final verdict has been given. There's still one more instance (and possibly EU court after that one) to appeal through.

  True. For many cases, the dates of the jail-time to serve can even be negotiated to some extent.

    That's also true for other European countries. And it also makes sense.

I met Sunde after that original ruling so I have to assume they aren't locked up and won't be until they stop appealing.
