Hi, I'm meeting with other objectors to the  blank media levy tonight at 
the Mayflower II, Queen near Bank, at 7-9pm, 2nd floor to discuss.

Context: Music artists get a 21 cent levy with each CDR/RW sold in Canada. 
They want to up that to 59 cents, and also levy DVDs and various flash 
media such as CompactFlash, SmartMedia, MicroDrives, etc., as well as MP3 
players.

I've been participating in the hearings.
