The lawsuit went through three trials and was against a Minnesota woman named Jammie Thomas-Rasset, who was found guilty of illegally sharing songs on Kazaa.

The original entrepreneurs, Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis, who launched Kazaa into its peak period of popularity, are now known for a completely different technological invention.
In , around the same time as Kazaa's peak use, they launched Skype. It took a few years to grow, but their invention eventually caught on.
