I've had a premium Pandora sub for years (about four years, w/ autorenewal!) but I'm kind of appalled by their Soundexchange lobbying.

@sarahjeong Story of my life! Got it. Yeah that PR could've been handled better. I'm sure it will be when these issues inevitably reappear!
@alisternburg They actually handled the PR well, I thought, at least initially--more than one of my friends was like "SUPPORT PANDORA"

@sarahjeong@alisternburg Seriously, support Pandora on this. Webcasting licenses are a mess, hurt radio + artists, incl. college & indies. -
@CathyGellis@alisternburg How does it hurt artists? -
@sarahjeong@alisternburg Over-the-air radio has always been able to play music for free. And everyone did quite well from that. -
@CathyGellis@alisternburg Over-air has to get licenses from BMI & ASCAP for rights in comp. It's diff. but hardly "for free" -
@sarahjeong@alisternburg Think also about who SX is and why they get the privilege of bargaining for all artists. Is that really just? -
@CathyGellis@alisternburg It's problematic, but Spotify's negotiations (free market, non compulsory) screwed small artists too. -
@sarahjeong@alisternburg Oh no, there's nothing free market about any of this! Is what Internet Fair Play bill was in part trying to fix. -
@CathyGellis@alisternburg How does reducing compulsory license rates help artists? - 13 réponses de plus
