According to the article below 70 and below is failing, I assume that means when they had the 'D' grade you could get a 60 and still pass? That's strange because I was in school (graduated 2000) below 70 was considered failing too but we still had A,B,C,D,F. 92-100 = A, 84-91 = B, 77 - 83 = C, 70 - 76 = D. 69 and below F. My school district was also in New Jersey.
I'll admit I'd probably still DL music even if a CD cost $5, the nearest music store is 20mins away....my computer is right in front of me. Thats why the RIAA has to embrace the internet. If they did find a way to prevent music swapping and I couldn't DL music, by the time I got to the mall I'd forget all about buying a cd.
The average person doesn't have enough money for a trial. They know this so they will offer you a plea bargain and make you pay $10,000 which is a lot less then paying $100,000 for legal fees and maybe a lot more if you lose.
