Six Days Left Until Congress Shuts Down Internet Radio!


So we’ve got until Sunday, July 15th.

The Copyright Royalty Board has upheld a decision that dramatically hikes royalty fees that internet stations must pay.

Clear Channel? Big radio broadcasters? They pay zero. Zilch. Nada.

This decision has the potential to drive many smaller broadcasters out of business, as well as sites like Pandora and Yahoo! Music.

But it’s not over yet. Write your representative–Congress still has the power to overturn the decision. The bill is in a committee right now, co-sponsored by 125 Congressmen and women.
