(St. Louis, MO)  --  A federal appeals court says a Brainerd woman owes record companies 222-thousand dollars for copyright violations involving free music downloads on the Internet.  The Star Tribune reports the three-judge panel reversed the decision of a federal judge in Minnesota, who reduced the award against Jammie Thomas-Rasset to 54-thousand dollars.  The recording industry is using the case as an example and the R-I-A-A says it's pleased with the ruling.  But Thomas-Rasset's attorney says the award is punitive and they'll appeal to the U-S Supreme Court.
