Take it from someone who works in the IP law field (patent litigation, not music), these types of suits are going on all over the world, not just America. I supply documents to attorneys who represent our corporate clients in countries like the UK, the Netherlands, Japan, and Germany pretty frequently based on the same types of technology that our suits are dealing with. The clients file in pretty much every country where the products are being sold, so we work together with foreign counsel to keep costs down. We don't work on contigency at my firm, though, just hourly rates, no matter whether we're the plaintiffs or defense.
Compared with the types of IP theft I see, though, 10 million is far more than this guy will get. I see quite a few 9 figure judgements, but that's when the profits on the products are in the billions/year for years at a time.
