Others Join NPR in Fighting CRB Rate Hikes
Thankfully, it looks like it is not just NPR that is soliciting the Copyright Royalty Board to re-consider their recent published rate hike. That offsets my concerns that a public radio only effort might yield a lopsided solution, an exception for not-for-profit that did nothing to help the new media folks out. According to the article, the last time this happened, it played out pretty much the same way. This reinforces my growing instinct to assume that in any of these conflicts, it has all happened before, with only minor variation. The article does not speculate on how to repeat the balanced outcome at which things arrived last time, though.
