In the United States, radio airplay pays nothing to performers, so it is just plain wrong. (It only pays songwriters, composers and publishers.) This is why Allofmp3 isnt paying artists. It is through a confusion in law as to whether Internet downloads count as radio or purchase. (The US has different fees for Internet Radio, like Live365, than for over-the-air: ironically license fees for an Internet-Only radio station are substantially higher than a broadcast radio station.) -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28858 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
