In Denmark a tax has been added to CD-R and CD_RW media, which has increased the price roughtly 4-fold<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... a single blank CD-R in Germany is roughly 2.5 danish kroner, in Denmark it is more than 8.0 kroner.
This extra tax is to compensate the music industry for their losses. Well Ive NEVER copied a music CD in my life - if I did it now woudl it be piracy ? I mean Ive already payed the music industry for the privilege of buying a CD-R from someone else.
So if 5.5 kroner of every CD-R I use (for data) goes to the music industry and a music CD is 150 kroner - does that mean every 30 CD's I use for something else, entitles me to make a pirat musci CD ?
