They forgot to mention that without copyright there would be no clothes or cars, since the purpose of those items is unquestionably to dress up and drive to the movies. There wouldn't be any food either, because why would people eat if they couldn't watch TV at the same time? If you dispute this, just do a google image search for "TV dinner" and you'll see lots of photographic evidence to back me up.
Hell, without copyright there would probably be no breasts or genitals either, their only purpose being to film pornographic movies and take pornographic pictures.
Yeah I heard about this "reproduction" fable, never found a picture of it on google image either.
Sounds like someone felt like there was no need to fact-check whatever they were writing. Maybe it was written by some young staffer that only uses computers for YouTube and/or video games?
Otherwise it's pretty unforgivable that the writer could not imagine any other use for computers than media consumption of some sort. They were originally created for business/military as number-crunching devices.
The blurb behind this link reveals them or as lobbyists "on demand" or just one of these uncountable organizations which feed from the seemingly unlimited amounts of taxpayers money in EU policy making. Probably both.

"Yo dawg, I heard you like copyrighting, so I copyrighted your copyright application, so you can violate copyright while you copyright."

Without screens or speakers, no music or movies to copyright.
In other news, computers and the internet allows content-producers to bypass content-distributors and self-publish content.
