ridiculous !!!
:dabs:
This is a great plan, 'cos everyone knows digital media is single use item and the tax would stop people buying new one's to perform evil acts of piracy which we all know funds terrorism and the drugs trade :ermm:
So where would this stop? Why stop with memory cards? Why not hard-drives (especially the one you can carry around). I understood why it was imposed in the Netherlands (on CD's and MP3 player). We had this levy, but on the other hand a very mild Anti-copy laws.
I think the tax should also be levied on CPUs, because they enable people to copy data. And LCDs, because they let people watch pirated movies. And ethernet cables.
Perhaps they should tax the CPCC for wasting legislators time and taking us all for fools.
I'd prefer a levy on this stuff instead of new copyright legislation tbh. Unfortunately, we'll likely get both :(
