Submission + - RIAA Proposes Taxing Radio Stations (noperformancetax.org)
jfreaksho writes: Local radio stations in my area have been playing advertisements for http://www.noperformancetax.org/, a website dedicated to preventing the passage of http://www.noperformancetax.org/clips/Leahy_S379.pdf and http://www.noperformancetax.org/clips/CONYER_bill.pdf which will levy a tax on radio performances. This is ostensibly being done for the artists, but we all know how that goes. The ads are presented as the "foreign-owned" recording companies asking for a bailout from U.S. taxpayers.
