I think we still do need the tariffs. We do need the universities, the libraries, and the other institutions, to pay their fees to Access Copyright because that really is the only way. I think it would be too difficult to develop some sort of an enforcement procedure. Who then is going to do that enforcement and how is that going to be carried out and that type of thing? I think if you just stick with the fees that are negotiated with each institution, then that is the easiest way to make sure that the publishers and creators do get paid for their work.
