lpv:translated text	". It is not for nothing that so many different interest groups have circulated their voting recommendations on the amendments on copyright. Creative producers’ interests are different to those of consumers, and together their interests are different to those of dealers in music, written works and productions. For artists, the work they produce is their income. Society exempts them from doing other types of work by paying them for their products. If they lose this money they will have to look for alternative work. Consumers, on the other hand, would prefer to get hold of these products for free. Whilst they still accept that you have to pay for a book or a trip to the theatre, and that museums are paid for by public funds or by charging an admission fee, a great deal has changed with the spread of photocopiers, video recorders, recordable compact discs and downloading from computers. People pay the manufacturer for these appliances of course, but they would rather not have to pay those whose work they are appropriating in the process. There are also companies that use artistic products to make money from the distributive trade, or as a way of luring clients for other purposes. When it comes to the vote on copyright, I shall be voting in accordance with the wishes of the trade unions and artists’ associations, for the sake of the producers and consumers, and not for the sake of business."@en1
