Question to anyone that understands the legal 'play' here: is it the thing to say that it cost them 2,000,000 paying (I assume) streams, which feels ridiculously high? And then it gets bargained down or something?
Because it seems a lot like the "you pirated my album/film instead of buying it" - whereas the reality of it is probably more like a high percentage just wouldn't have bothered - a passing interest/opportunity that piracy facilitated.
- staticautomatic 5y agoYeah they have to prove the amount of money they think they lost, which is subject to expert argument and some legal constraints. They can ask for whatever, but in theory they only get what they can prove.
