    According to the article, $150,000 is the maximum damages allowed per track. So $150,000/track * 86,000,000 tracks is around $13 Trillion. So they are asking for the maximum that the law allows.

    They could ask for infinity billion dollars for all it matters; you can’t get blood from a stone.
