Support Internet Radio
This just in from another list that I am on:
5.We OWN EVERYTHING -INCLUDING THE AIRWAVES!: We tried to tell yašll a long
time ago about the problems caused by corporations monopolizing shit, well
now look what they are up to in radio. The major labels are demanding that
webcasters (including college radio stations across the country, live365,
Shoutcast, etc.) pay a very high new royalty rate retroactive back to every
song they've played since 1998. This could be THE END of independent music
in general, and the ability to choose what you want to listen to. If you do
one thing today, go to this link:
http://www.saveinternetradio.org All musicians should be VERY concerned.
Because right now there are THOUSANDS of stations that could be playing YOUR
music. But in 2 weeks, there might be NONE LEFT except a few Big Giant
Corporate-Owned Stations which won't play anything except music by other Big
Giant Companies paying them lots of money. Anyway - YOU HAVE TWO WEEKS TO
STOP THIS - Make sure you scroll down one page on that site, to where it
says #2 A+B: CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES: Find contact information,&
deliver your message. Well what are you looking at me for? Get Busy!
