The same thing every defendant offers - a guilty plea. Courts can be unpredictable and the trial would certainly be expensive, so the prosecution would like to avoid that by making a plea deal.
Considering I go nuts spending two HOURS sitting at the DMV, if they actually serve two to five years that seems like a long time.
I found it interesting that they deleted any files that didn't get a enough downloads. They pretty much eliminates any argument that the service even COULD be used for backup, accessing your legally purchased content from another service, etc. Since any file that didn't get traffic got deleted, the service would pretty much be useful only for popular media.
