Same idiocy as with taxes on empty cd's: let's tax everyone, that even though only few actually do download music illegally.

One other option my country is considering is upping the taxes on mp3 players. Some estimates say a 60-80 GB iPod would have have a $75 dollar tax.

Personally, I think the best way to do this, is to tax the heaviest users OF bandwidth. For example, anyone who downloads 120GB+ should get taxed at a higher level than someone like myself.

One problem however... is that how much of that 120+ is going just to music, and how much is being used for videos, or programs?

Still, $60 a year in taxes to cover music downloads is a friggin' bargain. Just yesterday, I spent $165 on 10 CD's. Although I'd likely still buy CD's, I'd happily download music just to see if it's worth the purchase or not.

The only game where everyone competes to be an e-janitor.
