What's more like to full communism, saying contents producers to find a market-friendly method to get paid, or putting a policeman over the shoulder of everybody to watch for draconian IP laws compliance?

I don't understand? "IP laws" are totally incompatible with communism because property itself is totally incompatible with communism. I'm not sure what you mean by "market-friendly" but it sounds like some sort of euphemism?

Well, the latter actually strikes me as more fascistic/authoritarian. In a strict sense it isn't like communism at all. In fact, neither one of these are really communist. Misuse of that word bums me out.
