so it's not something for nothing ... it's just paying in advance 
all rights holder institutions / individuals are very welcome to collect their fee from our government cos as far as i'm concern i have already paid for all my music and stuff .

But, Fly you miss the real point. Just because your government steals a given amount of money from you (taxes), does not give you the right to steal from the guy who developed the thing that is stolen.
This whole idea that extra expense and trouble created by thieves is somehow the fault of the person being robbed is bloody ludicrous. Screw all you thieves.
If you want to sit back and do nothing and get the benefit of those who work, you deserve nothing but a slow death by starvation. Period.
