Your thoughts? Me, I'm just glad that Internet Radio will be allowed to continue unfettered, and I think that the restrictions that the RIAA was asking for were fucking outrageous. 1/7ยข per song per listener? What the bloody fuck? First of all, it's nearly impossible to track the traffic that closely, and even if you do track it, it takes all of your resources to keep accurate records, to pay out to all the artists, to pay out to all the labels, and that doesn't even take into consideration the possibility of performing an audit. They had to be crazy to think this would go through. I'm just glad it didn't. Call our system what you will, but it still works for the most part. ;D
