  3. A music industry group is asking XM Satellite Holdings Inc. and Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. to pay at least 10 percent of their revenues for the right to play songs over their networks. Unlike land-based radio stations, which pay royalties only to songwriters and music publishers, federal law requires satellite radio, digital cable and Internet companies that broadcast music to pay the artists and record companies.

  13. Make Way For The Music Detectives A few years ago the music industry was worried about Napster and the other peer-to-peer file-sharing services that allowed people to illegally post and share copyrighted music. The name Napster is now used by a legitimate service but there remain plenty of ways for people to share copyrighted music, video, software and other content. The latest battle zone of the copyright war is not so much those shady peer-to-peer networks but social network services like MySpace and YouTube that also allow people to upload video and audio. MySpace is owned by News Corp and YouTube was recently purchased by Google to the tune of $1.65 billion. As subsidiaries of publicly traded companies with very deep pockets, these social networking services have an incentive to keep pirates at bay. At MySpace the incentive is especially strong. The service got its start as a platform for independent artists to (legally) expose their music to their fans. Also, MySpace's parent company News Corp owns Fox TV, 20th Century Fox. Read more

Bush imitator, a fan of the songstress who apparently disagreed with her politics pelted her with a beverage. And as her anti-GOP riff ended, another man in the crowd found himself being escorted out of the center as he shouted at Streisand. Read more

  16. TOKYO (AP) - Sony said Tuesday the U.S. Department of Justice is probing its electronics unit as part of an industrywide investigation into sales of a particular type of memory chip. The news could spell more trouble for a company already stung by sinking profits, a global battery recall and product delays. The Japanese company received a subpoena from the Justice Department's antitrust division seeking information about Sony's static random access memory, or SRAM, business, company spokesman Atsuo Omagari said.
