P2P in Canada
December 13, 2003 08:58 PM
Canada copyright regulators have declared P2P downloading legal. What they say is that while downloading songs for personal purposes is acceptable, uploading (or sharing) amounts to piracy . The original news release also talks about slapping a $25 levy for all portable audio players which store songs in excess of 10GB. More links - the decision(pdf) and the tariff(pdf).
