'Net Neutrality' Strikes A Chord
June 3, 2008
What do Aimee Mann, They Might Be Giants, and Wilco have in common? In addition to being several of this writer's favorite bands, they've also all donated tracks to a compilation album, which will be released next month, to benefit a proposed federally mandated "network neutrality" rule for broadband Internet providers.
To be clear, I cannot and will not take sides on the contentious congressional debate, but I will note that the Future of Music Coalition and Thirsty Ear Recordings brought together 15 acts for the "Rock the Net: Musicians for Net Neutrality" compact disc. Look for it on July 29. Regardless of one's stance on the issue, good music is good music, right?
