They let us know we were using 100% of the schools bandwidth nonstop, and that a criminal investigation would commence and that the state had been notified. They showed us our data usage, which we were even surprised by, and demanded we surrender the MAC addresses they were accusing immediately.
All 5 computers/servers were seized with about 20 HDs, even our 3rd roommate's computer who had nothing to do with it. And we were removed/banned from campus for the year with the option to appeal for housing privileges next year pending the outcome of a criminal investigation by the state.
In judicial, my friend retorted "This is bullshit!" after the charges were laid out. Yeah that didn't go over well in addition to having me falsely testify as an un-involved 3rd party.

Sounds like you guys don't make a habit of paying artists what they deserve for their hard work. It's a lot of blood, sweat, and tears producing an album or a television show and there's no guarantee of a paycheck for an aspiring artist. The rules exist so we can enjoy art and encourage artists with profit instead of wallowing in filth all day listening to the Red Army Choir.
