Competition in Radio and Concert Industries Act

Are you sick and tired of the crap that Clear Channel is playing on the airwaves? Well, thankfully Sen. Russ Feingold is, because he has introduced the Competition in Radio and Concert Industries Act bill into congress.

The will supposedly...

... will help consumers, small and independent radio station owners, and indie concert promoters by prohibiting anti-competitive practices in the radio and concert industries, Billboard Bulletin reports.

Let's hope it has a chance. Clear Channel and the NAB will have their say (and probably their lawyers involved) before this bill has a chance to go far.
