A report commissioned by the French Minister of Culture Frédéric Mitterrand urges the introduction of a tax on online advertising such as that carried by Google, which would be used to pay the creators of artistic and other works who lose out to online piracy.
Such a tax could raise €10 million ($14.3 million) a year for creators, estimated the authors of the report, Creation and Internet.
I doubt that the whole of French culture is worth that much at the moment.
