You like your fix of downloads, so you propose that I subsidize your downloading habit through an isp tax?
I've never purchased a cd. My newest technology in music are LP records, and cassettes. I'm quite happy with them. I don't even own a cd player, except for the data cd players in my computers. Most of which don't even have speakers.
You like downloading music? Pay for it yourself. Don't go proposing laws that get others to subsidize your music habit.
Apple supposedly has some good model where you pay per download. Try that.
Don't ask me to pay for your music through another tax.
How would you calculate the tax rate, or amount collected/paid to the riaa? Are you going to take their word for it? Their "loss" in the last year? 2 years? 3 years? Their sales during a recession? Their sales with bubble headed bimbos of today compared to quality music of yesterday?
