Looks like bad news for internet music (radio) sites. nytimes.com Internet Radio Criticizes Rate on Royalties By AMY HARMON Federal copyright regulators set a critical ground rule for the fledgling Internet radio industry yesterday, cutting in half a proposed royalty rate that Internet companies must pay to record labels. Still, the adjustment fell short of what many said would be necessary for them to stay in business. Under the ruling, radio companies will pay the recording industry 0.007 cent each time they play a song over the Internet. Webcasters, who have been slow to find advertisers despite drawing large audiences, had hoped that the rate would be set at a percentage of revenue, a move that they argued would allow them time to build a new outlet for music.
