Please help us estimate the amount of "losses" from overprotective anti-copy laws, using the same basic methodology as the US ITC used recently (http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20110518/16301314325/us-itc-uses-ridiculous-methodology-to-claim-piracy-china-costs-us-firms-48-billion-2009.shtml) to determine "losses" from infringement in China: by asking those most affected to just say what their losses were.

How much, in dollar terms, have you "lost" in the past year due to overprotective anti-copy laws? *

in all seriousness, try to estimate a dollar value for the cultural creations you've missed out on due to overprotective anti-copyright laws (be reasonable)

Additional commentary on your number

this is not required, but if you'd like to explain how you came up with your number, that would be helpful
