This is the most ridicolous tax I've heard of all week! What about the independant artists? What about people who use blank optical media to, oh, I don't know, store some sort of data that isn't audio? Wouldn't happen.
Everyone knows that all blank CDs are used for is music piracy. Stuff like data back up, photo storage, etc, is al bullcrap. It's all those filthy pirates!
Seriously, this is almost worse than the iPod tax levis, except with iPods ypu have a guranteed chance that they'll atleast be used for music.
