The Boston case of 30 songs.

OK, found the Texas case. SCOTUS declined to hear the cases.

The first is the famous Jammie Thomas-Rasset case; P2P. The second is Tenenbaum; also P2P. "Weiblinger said RIAA actually caught Tenenbaum uploading thousands of music files to millions of anonymous strangers..."

Third case: "Harper was between 14 and 16 when she began downloading and sharing popular music with her friends..."

All three are about the legal issues of *uploading*, not downloading. There has never been, AFAIK, any court case filed for downloading.
