“Spanish legislators have decided that any time someone reproduces even a few words of someone else’s writing, it is now considered stealing unless compensation is paid. Germany previously passed an unsuccessful law of this sort, but the difference is that most media companies waived their right to charge for excerpts because Google created so much traffic. To make sure that the Spanish version was more successful, language stipulates that media companies MUST charge! There is no choice in the matter.”
