A more fundamental problem imho is the problem how to divide the =
collected money. Volcker Grassmuck argues hat it is feasible to =
implement a kind of accounting system that keeps track of the downloaded =
amount of material from different sources, and he proposes to pay the =
copyright owners pro rata.
See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/dat.html for a better way
to distribute the money, so it effectively supports the arts
instead of just the businesses that have taken control of them.
http://mecenat-global.org holds a newer proposal.
