I'm pretty pissed off that I have to pay this tax despite storing only legitimate material, but not enough to do something directly. I cheer if someone else is fighting against the way the copyright industry works right now.

That's not what the blank media levy is for. It is a compensation for the right copyright law gives you to copy works you bought in one format to a different format. Think buying conversion of an audio CD into mp3 for listening in your car.
Not that the real justification makes sense, but please stop associating it with piracy: it is wrong and serves to perpetuate this levy.
and i wonder if companies continue to receive that free lunch even after they inflict DRM on their customers.
How is it a "right" if I have to pay extra for it?
