“In that complaint, the Coalition alleges that terrestrial broadcasters are actively boycotting airplay for its membersâ music.”

What the hell did they expect? The labels keep pretending they have a monopoly over the music that radio stations can possibly play. They’re wrong.

Personally, I hope this fight drags on longer. More radio stations adding obscure and or independent music to their playlists is a good thing.

“Primary schoolchildren in Lancashire are to be shown a police-produced film warning about the danger from terrorists, and urging them to report anyone with âextremist viewsâ to the authorities.”

Like something from the era of Hitler Youth. It might start with “terrorism” but soon they may be encouraging kids to rat-out their schoolmates who unlawfully download MP3s.
