Last month, it looked like Pandora may go the way of the Muxtape , thanks to royalty rates that were eating up 70 percent of its gross revenue. But luckily, the hardworking folks in Congress found time for the important issues this week, passing a bill that will allow Pandora and other Internet-Radio sites to renegotiate royalty rates. If Bush signs off on the bill, the Radio sites will have until February to work out new deals with SoundExchange, which is the royalty-collection agency and not, contrary to popular belief, the name of a Duran Duran side project.

After approval by the U.S. House and now a nod from the Senate, the Webcaster Settlement Bill is headed to President George W. Bush's desk for his signature. The bipartisan bill will allow copyright owners and artists, on behalf of SoundExchange, to negotiate with Internet Radio services. The bill is expected to benefit all Webcasters, including National Public Radio, small Webcasters, and college Webcasters, who put their stations on the Internet. The House passed the bill Sunday. "This really is a bipartisan effort to find a resolution to a difficult issue, and there is a wide divergence on the right royalty to pay," said Rep. Jay Inslee (D-Wash.). SoundExchange, the Digital Media Association, National Public Radio, and the Record Industry Association of America have been negotiating alternative royalty rates since the Copyright Royalty Board, the group that determines royalty rates for Internet Radio services, set a royalty rate in March 2007. "On behalf of DiMA and our Internet Radio members, I want to thank Congress for acting quickly to pass the Webcaster Settlement Act," said Jonathan Potter, executive director at DiMA. "This legislation will enable DiMA and our member companies, and all Internet Radio services, to continue negotiating royalty rates with SoundExchange for the years 2006-2015." "We are very hopeful of reaching an agreement soon and thereby creating long-term stability that will re-energize the Internet radi ...
