We are already taxed on every form of blank media yet now the industry wants to sue us as well? Another C-61... Greatttt...

How about this? You leave the system as it is.. Because it works!.. Canadian citizens can\'t afford to take massive corporations to court.. Especially when these corporations have no proof of copyright infringement (which isn\'t reliable in the first place) whatsoever.. Consider if the industry gets their way and starts blanket lawsuits against millions of Canadians along with collecting billions in levy\\tariff taxes.. Now think about who is funding those corporations? The Canadian Citizen is.. Duh.. They can\'t have it both ways.. If the RIAA\\MPAA\\CRIA etc want to start lawsuits then our levy system should be automatically removed..

In the end they still lose billions.. Just tell them to take a hike and move their business into the 21st century already..

They want to wage wars against the best distribution method in the world versus utilizing it.. That should tell you something..
