The genocide of Internet radio may be upon us thanks to the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB), a three-judge panel created by congress, and SoundExchange, a digital music fee collection agent created by the recording industry. In 2004 the process of restructuring radio royalty rates began. Just recently CRB has announced their proposal for the new rate system.
Under the current system, web broadcasters just need to pay a percentage of their revenues as royalty fees, between 10% and 12%. Under the new proposed system, radio stations will need to pay a flat rate per play. This rate will be retroactive to 2006 and increase each year through 2010.
