Let's say it right up front: some large percentage of those targeted in the recent wave of P2P movie lawsuits are no doubt liable for their piratical behavior. But those who "didn't do it" face an agonizing choice—pay $1,500 to $2,500 to settle the lawsuits brought by Dunlap, Grubb, & Weaver, or pay even more money for a lawyer to plead their innocence.

And innocent or not, a case that goes to court always runs the risk of ending in a $150,000 fine. The sheer size of the penalties for online infringement would give anyone pause, and we've heard recently from several of those currently wrestling with what to do.

All claim innocence, much like the woman we profiled two weeks back, and we cannot evaluate the truth of any particular claim. But if you want to know just who these 14,000 P2P lawsuits have snared so far, here are several glimpses of how a lawsuit can affect a life.
