Mmm, I love the EU too. More tax, more rules - yummy. While we regulate oursleves up our own assholes, China says 'thanks!'. Hopefully it will all implode in a few years.

It'll never work - people will just go back to buying dodgy pirate copys off the market. The daft bastard record companies could reduce the problem simply by not taking the piss with CD prices....

[Mr E]

I saw that.

But this upset me even more:

Right. Let me get this right. Instead of tackling the problem of why some idiots are racist/sexist/whateverist, the EU propose to simply make it illegal to express those views....

What's next? An automatic £60 fine everytime I post the word 'black'?

What the f@ck is wrong with this country????

[DancingMoose]

SO whatever happened to the right to free speach!?!?!?

If I want to express my opinion do I now have to seek european approval? How do I seek this approval, bearing in mind that if I write down what I intend to say it may well be a crime?

FFS!!!!!!!!!


Point to be made on the digital media concept. Oh no!!! My CD won't play on my computer! I'll have to buy an audio lead to connect my computer to my hi-fi, then the ONLY thing I can do with the CD is store it digitally. Hmmm. Now that's done, I may as well share it................

Numptidom strikes again.
