This morning I was listening to CJOB and heard an interview with someone from the Songwriters Association of Canada. I would love to post a link to the interview on the CJOB site, as well as the name of the songwriter that was interviewed, however they require Windows Media Player to listen to or even search their audio vault, and bening on a Mac I cannot access this content, but that is another post for another day.
Anyway, I was slightly surprised by some of the things being said by this gentleman, and thought it was worth a listen. He made some good points and I was suprised that the Songwriters were actually admitting that something different had to be done. Their proposal however is flawed on many levels.
1. getting ISPs to agree to collect and manage this "tax" is highly unlikely.
