Someone I knew got sued by their Internet service provider for downloading movies off the Internet while in college. This was done via bit torrent. According to my friend, the penalty is up to $200,000 USD. What can he/she do to alleviate some of the costs associated with the penalty?

Well first there has to be a trial and he has to be found guilty and then there is a damage award. Negotiate is the only way to get it down.
