What does the proposed copyright law mean for you? - Video

Well looks like most of NZ will have no internet if this goes through

I'm not 100% sure on what this means exactly.
Quite honestly, I download up to 3 tracks from an album, and if its good, buy it for my CD collection, but if not, dont bother. With the limited and garbage music you have to put up with on the standard television and radio charts, there is no way I could listen to songs before buying an album... the government will have to force music channels to play a wider and more talented variety of music, so people can, in essense "try before they buy" if they stop sharing, or bye bye underground artists. Mainstream, paid for, top 40 garbage only. Because quite honestly, Im not paying $20 to $30 for a cd that could be crap.
Heres the thing, some bands offer free downloads of 1 to 3 of their tracks per album. How is the ISP to discern between a free MP3 and a stolen one? I am betting on key word search. "MP3 detected - disable account".

Basicly the way i see it, this isnt going to work that well, or at all.
I am probably what you would call a "computer nerd" so here's what I reckon is going to end up happening
1: Within a few days or weeks someone somewhere will have created a program that will have made it so the ISP can't see what they are downloading. This basicly results in all the people who download copyright software still being able to keep downloading and/or uploading anything they want, but this means people who don't know what they could be up/down loading, say from a virus doing this on purpose, they will end up disabled for what they know will be no reason at all.
2: I recently heard that New Zealand has the second highest hacking rate in the world, so what does this mean? people will just end up hacking the ISP to be able to keep on doing what they do.
3: It's called SHAREING, which is basicly the same as someone copying files from a PC to PC, say over a key drive, but instead of having to be right there, it is done over internet instead which makes it worldwide sharing over for example, limewire
Okay so now you see this isn't really going to work because it's still going to happen in ways the ISP's cant monitor or control.
Another thing that may end up happening is people deciding to take the ISP out of the situation (aka bypass the ISP) meaning they won't be monitored at all and from that they could get access to all sorts of things including other PCs
Nobody who downloads at all really wants this to happen you have to admit
