Woman stung with $US2m fine in RIAA file-sharing trial

The only file-sharing case to go to trial in the US has just seen Jammie Thomas-Rasset fined $US1.92 million by a federal jury for infringing 24 songs.

Wired reports Ms Thomas-Rasset first went to trial two years ago when a different jury ordered her to pay $222,000 for the same songs, only for the judge to declare a mistrial.
