I was thinking about a 250gb hdd instead (please forgive :toothless )sorry |

look at the danish tax proposal
| quote: |
COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - The source of the world's biggest sperm bank may soon run dry if Danish authorities decide to tax donors, Cryos International Sperm Bank said Wednesday.
Denmark, with the world's highest income tax levels, wants sperm donors to pay tax on the 500 crown ($84.59) reimbursement men receive for their services.
"It is a special kind of work and therefore the fee cannot be compared to normal working income," Cryos said in a letter to the tax authorities, adding it risked losing donors, most of whom are students.
Cryos receives between 30-60 donors a day at its three branches and each year Danish men contribute to around 1,000 pregnancies around the world.

along with that law (in 1st July) they added a few more...
- It will be illegal to download anything copyrighted (was legal before for personal use)
- It will be illegal to circumvent any copy protection on cds/dvds etc
- also it will be illegal to copy books and other stuff.
Still, this won't change anything. The police won't have any resources to inforce this law. I guess they will set a few examples, but ppl will just keep downloading... |

Yet they are going to charge you some extra money for your blank cds. That make no sense. |

| That's a load of bull. People who buy their CDs are gonna pay double, and people who typically hesitate are just gonna download even more. If they want to reduce piracy, they should lower the price of CDs. |

Totally agree, man !
If they lowered the prices on cd's I think they would get more people to actually buy them. personally I find it too damn expensive if I've got to pay ~AUS$35 or a typical trance cd. and it does seriosuly cost app. $35 for a trance record. I found Scotts Bond's Ahead price at 45 DOLLARS !!!
same with fricking pc based games, out of 10 people, I think 8 of them download games, the others buy games such as cs, quake, unreal ONLY to get the cd key!
EDIT: I just realized ive been "upgraded" to senior trance addict WEEEEEEE:happy2: :happy2: :happy2: :happy2: |
