Internet Radio Day Of Silence Update

As you have read here previously, internet radio has been facing its end as we currently know it. A looming increase in royalty rates, has threatened to drive most broadcasters out of business and highly commercialize those that remain. Good news! As part of the Internet Radio Day Of Silence, one million people contacted Congress, which oversees royalties. As a result Congress has delayed the increase in rates and has set a September deadline for Internet Radio and SoundExchange (the organization responsible for collecting royalties on the behalf of record labels) to come to an agreement. Thank you to all who participated! Stay tuned for further updates.
