I know this is old news for most Norwegians, but I feel the need to express my feelings towards this. 
The Norwegian parliament put out the budget for 2011 this month. In it there was a suggestion to tax internet services like Spotify, iTunes, Steam, D2D and even e-books. Some of you may be familiar with this in your own countries, but if I told you that they plan on using our current VAT-system, which is a whooping 25%, I'm sure you'd think that it was ridiculous. 
 Not only does this affect the average Joe, but corporations also have to pay the additional fee for software. Just imagine how much softwarelisences for 100s of employees will cost if you add 1/4ths of the base price to the already steep cost of the product you're buying. 
 If this law goes through, our government can expect a rampant rise in piracy that would make Captain Blackbeard blush if he was alive today. 
 I for one will not stand for it if it passes.
