Los Angeles - A 20-year-old is demanding a trial rather than pay a proposed $7,400 to settle charges she shared 37 songs on the Kazaa file-sharing network back when she was in high school.

Los Angeles - The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) will let a jury decide the amount of copyright infringement damages an admitted file-swapper must pay, after it rejected a federal judge's suggestion that she pay $200 per song, less than the $750 minimum sought by the record label trade group, Ars Technica reports.

Los Angeles - A federal judge has sided with the argument of a 16-year-old girl who claimed she had no knowledge or understanding of file-sharing or copyright infringement, and ruled she will only have to pay $200 per song, instead of the $750-30,000 allowed under the Copyright Act, Ars Technica reported.
