A PETITION TO STOP MONOPOLIZATION OF RADIO AIRPLAY BY THE MAJOR RECORD LABLES AND RADIO NETWORKS , AND TO FORCE BMI TO PAY UNPAID ROYALTIES

"Radio Stations should be fined for AGE DISCRIMINATION! Lot of the older artists sound better than artists of today.."

"free radio from monopolization, return the airwaves to the rightful owners, the American citizens!"

"I feel that the Indie and Majors should be paid equally."

"if not this time maybe next"

"It's time the Good Ol Boys where paid for their Work."

"I am glad there is finally someone taking the inititve who has some voice in the industry to put an end to this illeagle practice. I'm sick of calling and requesting songs and being totally ignored by mainstream radio for my favorite artist Randy Travis. "

"We at the Country Gospel Music Guild have a chart in the U.S.Gospel News Magazine, we also have a Top 20 Countdown radio show of that chart that we mail out and we also had it on our web page. BMI contacted us about paying performing rites, which is fine "

"It's time to pay up and play the Indie Artist on Major Radio and let the Listeners have a Choice"

"This is a great petition, as a singer I want my music to be played as many places as possible. If massive record companies are taking over radio then us smaller indie artists dont stand a chance!"

"damn right Joe"

"singer"

"We need more access to different musical acts."

"This should have been done long ago"

"I completely agree with this petition!!!"
