I looked at a few articles on the subject. Australia is worse off than Canada in terms of price of many goods and services IMO.

The MPAA seems to be using politicians in several countries to pressure ISPs etc. Eventually one would hope that the politicians will realize that the taxes paid by ISPs are more significant than the money that may or may not being lost by the MPAA.
And the cost of policing their users in terms of manhours is high enough. Why would an ISP implement a policy that will cost them money and a possible loss of many of their existing customers?
