Proposed changes in royalty rates paid to the RIAA are being passed by the CRB (Copyright Royalty Board) which will cause most Internet Radio broadcasters to discontinue operations. There is a short window of opportunity to appeal these outrageous rate increases, that will only profit the RIAA, big brain-dead broadcasters, politicians and lawyers in the short term.. and no one in the long term.. we the Public will suffer the consequences...

You sarcastic? Never! You're as sweet as a baby bunny.
Seriously, though, you have a sharp tongue - and you aren't afraid to use it.
And if people are too wimpy to deal with your attitutde, then too bad. So sad.
