The story has been changed on the wire and the 19th paragraphs now reads:

Tenenbaum's parents and sister have also been deposed in the case, as has a friend of his mother who works as a patent attorney in Minnesota and called the RIAA hotline on behalf of Tenenbaum's parents after they received the pre-litigation notice. "She happened to know copyright law," Tenenbaum said. "They kept saying she was my lawyer. We had to file an affidavit to get them to stop calling her my lawyer."

The 23rd paragraph now reads:

The RIAA says that it rejected Tenenbaum's $500 settlement offer and his claims of financial hardship because its investigation showed that he had just purchased a $250,000 condo. (In response, Tenenbaum said he bought the condo after his settlement offer and financial-hardship claims were rejected.) And the trade group claims in its legal filings that it made several attempts to negotiate a settlement with Tenenbaum before filing the lawsuit against him.
