Andrew Kantor published a great article in USA TODAY about the looming battle between the RIAA and the satellite radio industry. At risk is the ability to record the programming that you pay for and the future of innovative radio devices.

Kantor writes:

“The entertainment industry has been pushing hard - using the tired mantra of “stopping piracy” - to have technologies implemented that will strip you of these rights. It’s working to cripple the devices you use to watch videos and listen to music so you can only use the content you buy the way they say you can, legal rights be damned.”

If you have a friend who is a state representative, or in a position of authority, please update them on the importance of this issue. We must all be aware of the impending fight to protect our rights as a consumer and satellite radio listener.

Please take a few minutes and read the article.
