Washington - The SaveNetRadio coalition said on Thursday that in the three days since launching its online campaign this week, individuals have sent nearly 280,000 messages to Congress opposing the music webcasting royalty increase imposed by the Copyright Royalty Board. The group added that 3,500 artists have also called on their representatives to take action. "The reality is that there are only 27 days until the retroactive increased royalty payment comes due and thousands of webcasters go silent," said SaveNetRadio spokesman Jake Ward. "278,000 messages is a tremendous start, but we must continue to send the message to Congress to ensure they hear our message loud and clear."
