Interesting development. Not sure whether this is a good idea or a bad one that's the best (for the Music Industry) by default...
No mention of how they would account for who gets what. So a dinosaur, or a new artist being pushed might get the buck$ at the expense of a heavily downloaded but obscure act.
What about individuals and independant record companies I wonder? Somehow this smells like it could be a handshake between ISPs and Record Companies and the little battlers get shut out yet again...???
Who does the RIAA represent? All US record companies or just the majors?
Or do they represent artists?
Unless the Rights Associations of the performers and writers etc also get involved this could be a very biased way of distributing the proceeds.
