Whether you listen to Internet Radio or not, you still have a stake in the outcome of this fight. If you don't want the mega-corporations to control it all, contact your congressperson and ask them to support H.R. 2060. It has to happen by July 15th when the new fee structure goes into effect.

If the Copyright Royalty board isn't stopped, it's hard to say, without buying a recording unheard, how or where you'll be able to find any music from independent or noncommercial artists.

An organization called SaveNetRadio is leading the charge. Their Web site is www.savenetradio.org. As they put it, if we don't do something, July 15 could become known as "The Day the Music Died."
