As in the whole situation is surreal:

- high unemployment = no money - entertainment needs + no money = piracy

And now they've come up with jail time. Awesome. I wouldn't like to be the spanish gov right now.

perhaps he meant "fantastic" as in "Imaginative or fanciful; remote from reality". As in, whoever thought of that law must be having the best dealer connections.
The whole situation in Europe is just a collective descent into madness, led by those in high offices. The only surprising part is that they're about 20 years past due.
