The Senate voted Tuesday to pass HR. 7084, the Webcaster Settlement Act of 2008! GovTrack.Us says the bill passed the Senate by “Unanimous Consent.”
Should the President sign it into law, the act law will allow internet radio stations such as Pandora to negotiate rates with music rights holders.
I’ve heard (and purchased) more new music since I found Pandora than I have in years. Thanks to everyone who called on behalf of the bill!
