Congress May Save Small Internet Radio Broadcasters from Royalty Rate Decision Independent Internet Radio broadcasters might catch a break from Congress on the recent royalty rate decision by the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB). According to technologynewsdaily.com: "U.S. Reps. Don Manzullo (R-IL) and Jay Inslee (D-WA) have introduced bipartisan legislation to protect Internet music Web casters from unfair government regulations that threaten to put them out of business and end the access to music over the Internet for more than 70 million Americans. The Internet Radio Equality Act would reverse a recent decision of the federal Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) to at least triple the amount of royalties Internet radio broadcasters pay to copyright holders for playing a song."
