Innocent infringement is a violation of copyright without willful intent. Accidentally moving an mp3 onto a shared drive would be innocent infringement.
The difference is in the user's intent. Willful infringement means the user planned and intended to violate copyright.

Current copyright law doesn't have a reasonable balance between the rights of owners and the public good. No provision is made to deal with orphan works, which are becoming increasingly common. Using the fair use defense against infringement charges is a "guilty until proven innocent" situation; fair use should be the assumption, and the onus should be on the owner to prove infringement. Although "willful" infringement is more serious on paper, in practice little or no distinction is made between casual, accidental infringement and intentional, institution, wholesale infringement. Because technological advances have the ability to change the environment so utterly, a complete review of the law should happen every 5 years at a minimum. Most countries are using laws that never anticipated the internet, and trying to apply the same rules to physical and digital materials.
