NY Atty General Spitzer to Probe Digital Music Price-Fixing

Authored by Mark Hefflinger on January 3, 2006 - 8:20am.
Albany, N.Y. - New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer has subpoenaed several of the major record labels, in connection with a preliminary inquiry into digital music price-fixing, according to published reports. Labels that have confirmed receipt of subpoenas include Warner Music Group, Sony BMG and Universal Music Group. A spokesman for Spitzer told the Associated Press that it would take several months to decide whether the Attorney General's office would launch a full investigation. Spitzer has also investigated the record labels' relationships with radio stations, which resulted in multi-million dollar settlements over charges that labels paid stations to play certain songs in an updated version of the "payola" scandal of the 1950s.
