French to bankroll music-buying

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-11549874

Quote:
French people aged 12-25 are to be encouraged to buy music via a state-subsidised scheme.
The plan attempts to get young people into the habit of buying music rather than stealing it by file-sharing.
The scheme will revolve around pre-paid cards that have a face value of 50 euros (£43) but which will only cost 25 euros when bought.
The French government will pay the other half of the cost when a card is used to buy music on a download site.
One wonders how they can afford schemes like this during a recession?Or don't they have a recession?

Anyway does anyone think this will work?
