Recently, the Copyright Royalty Board [CRB] established new rates, retroactive to January 2006, that would financially force most Internet Radio Stations off the air on May 15th, 2007! The Board has refused to have a rehearing on it's ruling! Thousands of web casters as well as their listeners have rallied to have their voices heard! Representative Jay Inslee [D-WA] and Don Manzello [R-Ill] have introduced the Internet Equality Act! However, it needs more co-sponsors for it to pass! HERE'S WHAT WE CAN DO!!! On Monday, when Congress is back, from 9am to 4:30pm eastern time, please visit http://SaveInternetRadio.org and place a call to your Representative! SaveInternetRadio will assist you. Faxes and emails are fine BUT for this calls will have a much greater impact!! Thank you!
