What's up with the 1% tax? Why does it even exist? Where does that money actually go?

It would probably go to the big record companies only. In reality much of the downloading that takes place is for hard to find '70s novelty ballads and obscure ethnic music. Somehow, I suspect small players will not receive compensation, especially if we refuse to join RIAA. Just think you buy a computer, and some money goes to Marilyn Manson and its record company, just peachy.
