You know you're a POS when a piracy community cheers for copyright lawsuits

There is no mention of the compensation amount to be paid to Grant.
Not even the linked order says (which I would have thought makes it a "reasons for decision" not an "order"). It says "The parties have now filed cross-motions for partial summary judgment." So I guess it isn't over yet?
