Many of these lawsuits are against tiny hobby and public service blogs, the kind your grandmother would write, and that no one ever even looks at.

Righthaven sustained no injury since they did not own the copyright.

That argument has already been kicked out. What happens here is Righthaven buys a copyright ~ end of story.

What Stephens didn't count on is that he's managed to draw attention to every single periodical he owns a piece of and people are watching them like hawks. After all whenever he engages in a copyright violation that's an automatic win AGAINST HIM ~ for whatever amount, not just that $75,000 statutory deal.

I figure if I watch just the LVJ 6 months I should be able to find something worth several million bucks.
