SoundExchange Minimum Fee Offer Draws More Pushback
SoundExchange offers to cap minimum per-station fees at $2500 ($500 per station). While this would ease the pressure on services like Pandora or Live365 that create hundreds, if not more, personalized stations for listeners, the devil, as always, is in the details. Namely, SoundExchange will only agree to the cap if stations agree to stop their lobbying efforts for the Internet Radio Royalty Act, which would reverse the CRB’s ruling for higher royalty fees.
