"it's hard to believe the music industry's implementation of such a plan wouldn't have serious flaws."
What's hard to believe is that the industry would actually honor their claim that "tax payers" could download, copy, and share as much music as they like. I'm putting my money on the scenario that they'll convince people to start paying this "tax" and once it's implemented, they'll come back and say, "well, we didn't really mean you could do whatever you wanted with ANY music, only the stuff that's not copyrighted."
Sorry, I don't trust a group that's engaged in so many draconian tactics to actually keep their word on this. -- Wishes: When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true.

 | Why not have an online music subscription and pay $5 that way. The people who would want to pay it will pay it. |

 | I buy all my CD's I listen to so screw them. I sure as hell will not pay an extra $5.00-$10.00 for something I don't take. Their model is flawed as they ASSUME every user pirates music which is not the case....
Price the CD's a bit more reasonable and the sales will go up and less piracy. At $17-$20 or more a CD it's no wonder music gets pirated. Most of it's not worth $.50 a CD..... |
