not quite right. it is NOT the government that collects, and this is not a tax. there's a "non-profit" organisation called GEMA that collects and re-distributes these things.

So if you don't pay GEMA who *are* those folks with the guns?

GEMA will most likely sue you. but since GEMA isn't the government, that's a civil case.
