Internet Radio Royalty Ruling Update

From Rusty Hodge of SomaFM.com:

"SoundExchange offers to settle for 30 months with Small Webcasters: it sounds good at first, but it's really a scam. By accepting this, we only delay huge royalty increases for 30 months. Meanwhile, our royalty rates will increase 800% from 2010 to 2011. Do not be fooled: this us just a ruse to make Congress think that SoundExchange and the RIAA are compromising with webcasters so that no legislative change is needed ... SoundExchange announced this as a purely political move."
