And without getting their hands on his computer, they have nothing.
Almost every detail to do with computers can be faked. I can tell my router to present a different MAC address that it's real one if asked. It's not so hard to get a network card to do the same. Anyone who can get in to a secured wireless network shouldn't have an issue doing that.

My gist is, the lawyers can't really prove much. May I ask who the lawyers are? If it's who I think it is, they do this a lot - just fire out the letters and scare people in to paying. A decent letter back to them written by his soliciter will generally get them to go away, if he's willing to risk the fight. Otherwise, just pay up.

And shame on him for not using secure BitTorrent to share... very hard to catch you that way.
