Yes, but so many single people are being sued for money they don't have. Think about all the people who use file sharing programs instead of legally buying the music they like. Also, having to pay money is only one possibility. I think people also had to go to jail for using or just downloading copyrighted materials. I believe you could even say writing audiogames using copyrighted music etc. is even worse than file sharing - after all when you use a file sharing program you mostly just download the copyrighted stuff whereas when you write an audiogame you widely redistribute the copyrighted stuff... And how could big mainstream companies lose their faces? OK, maybe there will be some discussions but after the next great video / game or whatever all will be forgiven and forgotten...
