I'm curious about this. Was it "C&D or we'll sue you for $150k" or "give us $5k or we'll sue you for $150k"? In cases of non-commercial copyright infringement, I believe the former is appropriate. The latter gives them very little incentive to stop the infringing activity because they aren't going to pay up when they didn't profit from the infringement.
I want to be clear on this point though: what this guy was doing was certainly wrong and 2p2 must have an avenue to stop the infringing activity.
