The recording industry and Internet music broadcasters hope a new agreement will prevent a repeat of their recent battle over online music royalties, allowing them to focus instead on providing better music services for consumers.
Many US based internet-radio's have been silent the past months because they were not able to pay the rather high fee due last year for being allowed to continue their broadcasts. Originally it was decided by Copyright Office that webcasters had to pay 70 cents for every song heard by 1000 listeners. Now a new deal is proposed that will make it a bit easier for the webcasters. They can now avoid paying for 4% of the songs played and they can choose to either pay an hourly rate or a percentage of their revenue. This will probably mean that non-profit internet-radio's can restart their broadcast and pay x% of their zero-income to the industry, in other words they can broadcast without paying anything at all.
Hopefully all parts will agree to this proposal that will be valid for 2003 and 2004.
