Re: Also a long discussion of this in Canadian forum at BBR

I'm not sure but I believe that provision only applies if you don't break any copy protection "features". The fine is much more otherwise. This means that you can't back up DVD's or rip music from a copy-protected CD or even play a CD with Windows-only copy protection on a Linux or Mac box.

This is a ridiculous bill that caters solely to business interests and will hopefully never become law.
