"A federal judge has fined a Connecticut woman $6,000 for allegedly downloading copyright-protected music from the Internet. Jennifer Brothers of Andover was among thousands of people named in lawsuits filed by the recording industry last year," reports AP.
"Court documents indicate Brothers never accepted a copy of the suit and never filed a response with the court. The fine came when she failed to appear for a hearing last week and US District Judge Janet C Hall found Brothers to be in default."
