-I think the goverment should charge the 'intellactual property' owners a levy on every copy they're reproduced to the market as a fund to fight agaiinst piracy,

Since the more they reproduce, the easier to be pirated, and cause the more trouble. And the enforcement office need more cost to handle.

It'd be fair , since it's their cost to run a business and buy an insurance for every copy of their intellactual property they're reproduced.:)

that's what we need.. a homeland dept of anti-piracy.. piracy level today is sunburst yellow... :rolleyes:

the real piracy hit that the labels take and movie studios take is in the east.. soooo much lost revenue over there due to cheap copies on the street. but that's a state dept etc. game to play and also, the movies etc dont really get distributed there in lots of places so if a kid wants to go see star wars before his 30th b-day he has to go buy a pirated copy in the local market.
