In the Ministry of Communications Bill Mikhalkov considered an attempt to legitimize piracy
Nikita calculates potential revenue CPR after the introduction of the new tax
As already reported earlier , now the government is considering a bill on the "anti-piracy tax" on the Internet. The bill was proposed by the Russian Union of right holders (CPR) in the face of Mikhalkov. Concept of the bill Khrushchev personally presented to the President in September this year.
A little later, First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov instructed to several ministries, including the Ministry of Culture, Ministry of Communications, Ministry of Economic Development, Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Justice to develop a bill on the "anti-piracy tax" on the Internet. In the case of the bill telecom operators will pay a fixed fee (as far as can be understood, the annual contribution) in favor of the owners.
It is clear that this bill is the closest sphere of activity the Ministry of Communications, and then - all other ministries and departments. Maybe that's why the Ministry of Communications in the face of the deputy head Alexei Volin has already given a review of the bill. Reviewed short and succinct : «This will mean that piracy is not, as for all paid».
Alexei Volin gave relatively detailed interview «Izvestia", which explained this view: "We are opposed to one organization exclusively appropriated the right to collective rights management. We believe that someone attempts to transfer control rights to one, but still allow them to remain with 30-40% of the total collection - is robbery industry that should and can make itself. We do not believe that these people are equitably distributed among owners proceeds ».
He also said the following: "It will be a big blow to producers of films and TV series, which began work on the Internet, buy a license or collect money for viewing, - said Deputy Minister of Communications. - These services introduction of such a charge would be killed - they will lose meaning if we legalize piracy. Industry losses due to piracy are significant, and these amounts will not be able to compensate for collecting ».
A similar view is shared by the president of the Russian Television Academy Taffy Alexander Akopov "after five years, the market of online video and display on the Internet will be able to compete in terms of revenues from film distribution and income from sales of television rights." In other words, if you type "tax on the Internet", no revenue growth in the industry of online video is not expected.
It should be noted that revenues from telecom operators plan to distribute in accordance with the actual use of the content of any other holder. A use will be monitored by now developed methodology, which includes elements such as DPI , and recognition of content. The data will be published in the open form and holders will receive funds, depending on their content usage activity. It is understood that such a system - a unique and nowhere in the world has not been used.
It remains to wait for the opinions of other departments. In the meantime, you can express their opinion in the survey (or in the comments, as someone more convenient). Do you offer Mikhalkov reasonable?
