I'll admit to being a muppet regarding P2P. I live in a small village in Leicester UK. A parent here was visited by the performing rights people because his daughters had downloaded thousands of songs.
They threatened to prosecute but settled out of court for £2000 ($4000).

How did they get his address and how did they know his daughters had downloaded the files??

Are Limewire legally bound to allow access to their records or is this something that is easily found out by anybody who knows their way around the Limewire system??

I tried searching the forum but couldn't find a thread that covered this
