For the past five years, the Recording Industry Association of America has been prosecuting people — and threatening to prosecute many more — for sharing copyrighted content online without authorization. Last year, in the first file-sharing lawsuit ever to go to trial, Jammie Thomas was found liable for sharing two dozen songs — and the judge ordered her to pay $222,000 to Capitol Records. Now, that judge has admitted that he made a "manifest error" during the trial, and Thomas may get another day in court.
