How are they going to ensure that artists are fairly compensated? Are they going to look into each one of our iPod and find out whose MP3 file we have on our iPod? This is just a ploy to keep their job at CCB. One more reason I love PirateBay. Digital Freedom is our RIGHT! So they want us to pay another digital tax?

I can see this being a second barrier for copyright industry bully tactics, though that won't stop them from demanding the ability to jail an entire generation for being customers.

It ought to also legalize P2P for $75 would buy an awful lot of iTunes singles. The funny thing is that it's sad state of affairs when the public's being asked to pony up extra cash just to be able to do with it as you please. Imagine if car manufacturers tried to dictate when and where you could use a car you bought and paid for., It's ridiculous. It doesn’t mention DRM, but yes, that had be better be the case.

Otherwise this law is unfair to consumers since we are being locked out of placing content on our devices but at the same time being charged for that form of use.
