Entra em vigor
dia 4 de Abril,
novas leis,
multas... etc
no que diz respeito
ao download
de mp3... hoje
ao ver o jornal
da noite achei
bastante curiosa
esta notícia.
Então
não é
que agora dizem
que já
estão
referenciados
no nosso país
uma série
de utilizadores
e que dia 4
a policia judiciária,
vai juntamente
com o governo
dar uma conferência
de imprensa
onde vão
dizer quem são
e anunciar os
crimes praticados,
bem como as
multas aplicadas
aos visados
!!! Mas que
coisa esta,
devo confessar
que sou um utilizador
"normal"
de internet,
mas á
coisas que me
fazem confusão
!!! se sabem
quem são
os utilizadores,
obviamente também
sabem de onde
foram feitos
os Downloads...
não seria
mais fácil
combater directamente
quem os promove
e propaga, vulgo
SITES ??? Sinceramente....
passo a aplicar
um velho ditado
que o povo se
encarregou de
perpetuar: Ladrão
que rouba ladrão,
tem 100 anos
de perdão
!!! se existe
quem faz os
sites, se existe
quem promove
a situação,
porque têem
que ser os últimos
da corrente
a pagar??? Não
seria mais fácil
acabar com os
dowloads de
mp3??? Não
seria tudo mais
fácil
se a industria
musical colocasse
no mercado a
musicaa preços
acessiveis???
Porquê
que em Portugal
a música
não é
considerada
cultura e tem
que pagar 21%
de IVA??? O
que eu acho
mesmo é
que há
gente demais
a ganhar dinheiro
com todas estas
situações
e agora para
não variar
quem vai pagar
é o pobre...!
Bom... chega
de conversa,
se quiserem
deixar comentários
sobre isto,
podem faze-lo
no nosso Guestbook.
