Internet radio stations can extend their negotiations with labels and artists over performance royalties following a key vote in the House of Representatives.
The legislation, H.R. 7084, was passed on Sept. 27 and now moves to the Senate.
The legislation authorizes collecting society SoundExchange to negotiate new royalty agreements on behalf of copyright owners and performers for Internet radio through Feb. 15, 2009.
The Digital Media Association (DiMA), SoundExchange, National Public Radio (NPR) and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) welcomed the vote.
