The RIAA is trying to shut down Internet radio. Visit http://www.savenetradio.org and write your Senator today before it's too late. Don't let your musical choices be determined by large corporate interests.

Hmmm interesting! I hardly listen to internet radio; it's mostly the stations out of state that have the listen live link on there website. But thanks for letting us know! I have actually listened to internet radio, and I found it quite boaring; although that was a few years ago. Am

There is no freedom in broadcast for the majority of brick and morter radio stations these days with the exception of a lot of college radio stations, so i really hope that the gistapo of the RIAA don't come after net radio and podcasts etc.

I read something about this a couple days ago. The RIAA have gotten so mad with power it's scary and disgusting.

Agreed, they sure have. I'd hate to see a lot of interent radio stations get shut down. As far as I'm concerned, these guys are hungry for money, and they obviously want to get rid of the smaller stations...
