Okay ... in Germany we are paying fees (to copyright holders) for PCs, scanner, printer, CD/DVD blanks and writers, etc
And in the future we will ALSO pay for harddrives, usb-sticks, memory cards, etc (means we pay multiple times...)
But dont get me wrong: Paying this will not make it legal to actually use this stuff (e.g. to make a backup for existing CDs). You are just paying w/o getting anything. In the normal world this is called protection money .. not much difference between some companies and the organized crime, is there?
