The fact that they still get legislation passed to protect their control of everything just demonstrates how rotten the industry is, But I already made that point as well. Aaah, gotcha. I thought you were saying that they owned the rights to all the stuff they collect royalties for (which they don't). |

| 531756 | 2008-08-31 12:17:00 | Will this affect local radio stations that also stream on the net? The RIAA has no legal standing outside of the USA do they? |

| 531757 | 2008-08-31 12:24:00 | They have no standing outside the US, but other regions do often tend to end up following similar paths where IP laws are concerned. And yes, this probably does affect terrestrial stations that also stream on the net, but the situation isn't nearly as dire for them as for the organisations who are purely webcasters. | Erayd (23) | ||

I think they do Bro. :annoyed: I say this because whilst having an ale with my local Publican he was going crook because some ‘Suits” came into his pub and started counting up all the devices that could play music. They even counted an old transistor on his desk that he used to listen to his radio adds. He got hold of his Lawyer and the Lawyer advised him they had to be paid. He also said that apparently some service stations that had the local radio station playing in the background were stopped. This applied to Starbuck & Lone Star too so I’m told. Anyway, he’s still stuck with some outrageous payment for the Jukebox and Sky. :annoyed: |

Ahhh right, well I guess it won't be long before the local crowd follow suit. Bit rough when the Radio Station pays royalties and they want you to pay to listen to the Station in commercial premises. Talk about Double Dipping. :annoyed: |

| 531762 | 2008-09-01 07:51:00 | What about places that use it on there phone system while your on hold? The company I work for does this although they advertise on that station too, it is one of the local stations in Nelson? | gary67 (56) | ||

Bit rough when the Radio Station pays royalties and they want you to pay to listen to the Station in commercial premises. Talk about Double Dipping. :annoyed: From the APRA website. Q. APRA already charges radio stations a licence fee to broadcast music. Why is another fee payable? (www.apra.co.nz) A. Under the Copyright Act, music composers have a number of different rights that enable them to make a living from their work. They have the right to authorise the communication (broadcast, transmission, diffusion) of their music – hence the APRA licence for radio stations – and, quite separately, the right to control the public performance of their work. Businesses that play music via a radio, TV or other means are giving a public performance of the music and therefore need an APRA licence. But if you were working in a factory or office, surely that it not a public place? |

I has happened...... Now Hollywood is chasing UK downloaders (www.theregister.co.uk) Retarded P2P'ers are ruining it for everyone..... "....................prosecution of individual file sharers is dumb indeed - it does nothing to compensate the artists being ripped off, and accelerates the destruction of value of sound recordings. Almost all of the music business (with the exception of Universal Music) now recognises this." ".................Jammie Thomas, the first American to be taken to court for P2P file sharing, used the same login name for Kazaa that she used for her email, MySpace account and all her online shopping. She tried to persuade the jury that a WiFi snooper outside her window might have wot dunnit. Only... she wasn't using WiFi." "...................The latest RIAA file sharing lawsuit fell apart on Monday - and the defendant Jeffrey Howell, of Scottsdale, Arizona, now faces stiff penalties for destroying evidence. Howell, who was defending himself in court, had been using the Kazaa P2P network. His defence was going swimmingly until the RIAA noticed that Howell had made more than one attempt to purge the evidence. He'd dragged the songs to the recycle bin, uninstalled Kazaa and zapped the logs, then reformatted his hard drive. Then he bought and ran a commercial disk wipe program." |
