最近在网上看到的一条消息：
Suppose someone was handing out $20 bills and no one wanted one? That's what's happening in a massive price-fixing settlement paid for by the recording industry. {Click headline for full story.}
The top five U.S. distributors of compact discs and three large music retailers have agreed to pay $44 million in refunds to settle a lawsuit that accused them of cheating consumers by illegally inflating prices. The companies settled to avoid an expensive legal battle. Anyone who bought CDs between 1995 and 2000 is eligible for a refund of up to $20, even if you don't have a receipt to prove it.
"I want free money, but it seems like there would be a catch," said Jayla Fincher of San Jose.
There is one catch. If more than 8.8 million people apply, the per-person share would drop below $5, and the customer refunds would be cancelled, because sending out so many small checks is too expensive. That seems unlikely, however, because only 30,000 people have filed claims in the last three months, leaving most of the money untouched.
Filing for a refund is simple. Just answer a few basic questions at www.musiccdsettlement.com and tell them where to send your check. I made $20 in less than three minutes. Most music buyers call that easy money.
有兴趣的，又在美国的朋友可以不妨一试。

P.S. 不要直接点击上面的link,因为那个link的前面加了popgo.net/bbs. (不知为什么....)
P.S.2 不好意思，那个deadline已经过了，不过没准那天又开始(如果有新的Judge's order的话.....)
