Actually there are two issues here:
First, had the guy been smart enough to get a lawyer, he would not have plead guilty to some bogus trumped up charges and he would not have been in this situation. He would have paid a few bucks to a scumbag to negotiate a cash settlement with some other scumbags and been done with it.
Second, had the guy been smart enough to realize that UPLOADING protected materials to the internet REALLY gets some powerful organizations upset, he would not have been in this situation.
I hate the RIAA almost as much as I hate M$, but since I can't afford to take either one of them on, I know enough to fly below their radar!
