For perspective, this guy got SEVENTY FIVE percent of the sentence that Anders Behring Breivik received for killing 77 people in Norway last year.

The punishment don't fit the crime

and there are a lot of people that feel that guy didn't get enough time for kiling that many people... it's a two way street... the fact is this guy was caught multiple times, he had his chance at change with much smaller sentances... teh more you show you aren't changing the harsher they get with you

Delusioned people thinking that a 15 year sentence is a decent amount for burning and selling a few movies.....
I hope if a cop see's any of you spit on the ground, you get jailed for 1 year... because that is basically how stupid this is.
Drug dealers, murderers, rapist, and worst have received lighter sentences than this.
But, you can tell how bad this country is getting, when people will agree with this kind of ruling. Total lack of compassion for humanity and life.
And the whole " he did it before " speil isn't worth takign 15 years away from someone's life. He didn't harm anyone in his recent actions, other than some wealthy C.E.O's... of course, in America, that is the worst type of crime... Crime against a rich white man by a poor man.

I wouldn't say the punishment fits the crime but I do say the crime deserves a punishment. People steal because they get away with it.

That's about all I can add.

A person should only go to prison when they are a menace to society. This man is not. He should pay for his crimes, but it should be in a way that totally fits the crime.

It sure does deserve a punishment, but nothing that restricts his life as such. Fine him, probation, but not jail. That only cost the tax payers more money. And digital stealing should not warrant jail time, unless it's somehow ruining a livelihood of some sort.

Agreed, but i don't feel bad for the guy at all. This guy has a criminal history, so don't forget about that. These type of people are cons and will take advantage of anyone. SO you have to add all that into the guys character. He isn't some child that was giving copies of biber cd's to his friends at school.

People saying this is no big deal then fine, send me all of your half or your paycheck after a long days work. Doubt you'd have the same tone if it was your own work someone was stealing and selling.

All that means is that Norway is a wussy state that doesn't believe in giving that idiot the sentence he deserves, death.

Fines aren't a deterrant for repeat offenders. And he's selling it, not just stealing.
