A bill has passed the House (HR 4077) yesterday. This particular piece of legislation would
...send people to jail for sharing 1,000 songs, or just one unreleased album. That's right, up to 5 years in jail for sharing one album.
I'd be curious to know how they made the connection between one album (averaging ten to twelve tracks per) and one thousand individual songs. Did they just say "well, they both start with a one. Close enough."?
-- Update --
HR 4077 is also known as the Piracy Deterrence and Education Act.
