So taking that through to it's conclusion that leaves a pool of $544 million. If 1 million people sign up, you're getting $544, 10 million yields $54.40 and 100 million gives $5.45. So the question is, how many people do you think will sign up? My guess is somewhere between 10 and 100 million so you'll probably get about $10-$30

If this is US only absolutely no way in hell it hits 100 million. A majority chunk of those users are old, dead, don't engage in any media that would have told them about the class action, or are just too incompetent to fill out the simple form. I'd be surprised if it's much more than 10-30 million.
