a lot of this seems very unclear. perhaps some of the IMRO people who post on thumped can clarify the confusing aspects of this legislation

this is idiotic. it'd be nice if techcrunch or one of the other big tech/internet blogs picked this up -- it might embarrass imro into backing off.
It's covered in the guardian today: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2010/apr/29/irish-music-blogs-under-attack
So far, this hasn't been a problem. For better or for worse, publishing groups were sleeping giants – leaving spats with music bloggers to the recording industry associations. Now, bolstered by massive licensing deals like IMRO's recent agreement with YouTube, they're awakening to possible revenues – and dispatching the lawyers.
from that article:
is that a typo? or did i miss something here? what massive deal does imro have with youtube?
Does that mean that I can register with IMRO put a song on youtube then keep playing it over and over again and get paid for it?

I'd quit IMRO over this but then how would I be able to afford my bi-monthly two thirds of a text message? In anyways, if it comes down to it I'd say most bands who avail of Thumped would be willing to contribute towards a licence should Pete decide to go down that route.
Milan Panic should kick in the bulk of it.
