College and high school radio stations urge Congress to oppose record-label supported legislation

In a letter to members of Congress delivered earlier today under the banner of the Free Radio Alliance and the College Broadcasters Inc. (CBI), faculty, staff, and students from more than 80 stations including Duke University, Harvard University, the University of Wisconsin, SUNY-Brockport, Rice University and Virginia Tech argued that “other serious threats” would result from the passage of the performance fee.

College Broadcasters, Inc. has been leading the charge to stop ridiculous fees from the recording industry that would probably put a lot of college radio stations out of business. Hat tip to those folks for leading the way. Let’s hope there’s some common sense in Congress about these fees.
