You might get them to drop below $3000, and I'm sure someone or other on the internet has published all kinds of statistics on what they settle for. But AFAIK, they ain't going to zero for anyone I've heard of. The friend's kid paid more tha $3000 for more than 1000 songs (I think it may have been amost 2000, but I can't remember).

Thanks, that helps. I told him to search for stats on the number of songs and the settlement amount so he could offer something in that ballpark.
I found a couple of useful websites. So far none have recommended going the amnesty route.
He doesn't want them to go to zero, he just can't afford the $3000.
