The Case is cut and dried, so to speak,
and so the erroneous royalties may easily
removed in light of the truth, in which
light all justice is discerned...
The following REUTERS article in wired news
explains this good appeal, filed on Monday:

Read it.

Note: this case is ONLY considering terrestrial broadcaster who use the internet to stream their transmission, this has nothing to do with our corner of the industry.

HIGHLIGHT:
Congress said sound-recording owners should get paid for Internet transmission when it updated copyright laws for the digital era in 1995 and 1998.
But Congress intended the law to apply only to services that would enable users to select and download songs, not online radio-style broadcasts that do not allow users to save songs, the broadcasters said in their appeal.
The above quote from the article highlights that the determination
of congress was misinterpreted - This applies to ALL Net Radio -
and as such, the CARP - Librarian of Congress decision is VOID,
and is not according to the designation(s) of congress. This fact
is incontrivertable, and highlights how the RIAA and associates
have pressed upon outright (gross) misinterpretation of the
directions of congress.
