The theme of CanonDigital (imposed by the possible uses of piracy what we do with devices that have digital storage) is quite controversial, to such an extent that the European Union and the Court of Justice have pushed it back on several occasions. At the beginning of the month of August a new formula came into force of the controversial tax, that is, there is a new Canon Digital, there is a new tax that we are all going to end up paying ...
Well yes, in the end this always ends up affecting the final consumer (later we will explain nuances of this new Canon Digital), that is, We are going to pay these new taxes, and Apple products are also required to apply this new Canon Digital. After the jump we will tell you all the price changes that you will find if you go to the Apple Store to buy any of the products of the guys from Cupertino ...
It must be said that all thats failures of Digital Canons Previous have been due to the fact that this could not be applied to professionals who bought these devices, that is, it is understood that a professional buys their devices for professional use and not at the user level downloading pirated content, let's take it for granted that everything private consumer pirates content and for that reason they force us to pay this Digital Canon, an absurd tax and without any basis. Yes indeed, the government does not oblige the consumer to pay it, the manufacturer can deal with it, but you know, no manufacturer is going to pay for us ...
And that is why Apple Joins Every Other Tech Maker In Making Us Pay For The New Canon Digital with the following price increases: for the iPhone we must pay extra 1,10 euros per unit; in the case of iPad the increase amounts to 3,15 euros per unit purchased; and in the case of iMac or MacBook the Canon Digital amounts to 5,45 euros per unit purchased. Increases "minimal" but that we would not have to pay, I think it is absurd today to continue thinking about piracy as it was 10 years ago, not to mention that it is not very clear what the government will do with that collection ...
Tip:
Save the invoices in a fee that the European Union will throw away and they will have to return the money to us
There will be less and less piracy, as more and more companies appear that provide you with series, movies, music ... for a very cheap price.
To the amounts of the canon that you put you need to add a 21% that you do not forget.
On the other hand, distributors like media markt do not have the system prepared and are not charging it.
It was all fireworks. In less than a month, and often a month with everyone on vacation, the sector has had to run a lot, some have not even arrived ...
It seems absurd to me to complain about this. If you spend a good amount of money on an Apple device that in itself is not cheap at all, then ...
What is the trouble with spending a paltry euro, two or three ...?
If you spend 300/400/500 ...
What bothers you to pay that difference ...?
I thought it would be something more critical ...
