"Illegal downloading in France had reached such a point, said Jean Berbinau, general secretary of Armt, the regulatory authority for digital copyright, that the authorities had to act.

“We have to do something, but it is only transitional, only to give time to the industry to adapt and maybe to encourage a new business model,” said Mr Berbinau at the Midem international music market."
