Webcasters Slap RIAA With Antitrust Suit

The antitrust laws may be a joke, but the Webcaster Alliance is at least making a point with its lawsuit against the RIAA. Writes the Alliance, "We have watched the RIAA's actions...(which) have the effect of wiping out an entire industry of independent Webcasters who represent freedom of choice and diversity for Internet radio listeners. It is time for the RIAA to be held accountable for years of manipulating an entire industry in order to stifle the growth of independent music and control Internet content and distribution channels." I wish the Alliance the best of luck, and hope that this action will give publishers pause for second thoughts when they think about how to approach the learning content market.
