Save Internet Radio

The future of Internet radio is in Jeopardy!

The Copyright Royalty Board in Washington, DC has more than tripled the royalty rates for web casters and if left unchanged they will *KILL* the future of Internet radio!

Yesterday(April 26th, 2007) the “Internet Radio Equality Act ” House Resolution # 2060 was introduced in Congress. This bill would overturn the CRB’s decision and require rates to be re-set at a lower rate.

Let your voice be heard & help push it through Congress.

I listen to a ton of internet radio, a lot of high quality streams for free; the costs are already in the hundreds to thousands of dollars a month. And in the US they want to make it more? Fuck off. I have posted a banner on my site to support the cause.
