Jonathan Potter, executive director of DiMA, could not outline specifics of the offer. But Potter was quick to point to an unfair proposal, one that compares unfavorably to equivalent rates for cable and satellite radio providers. "The SoundExchange offer would require webcasters to pay many multiples of what cable and satellite radio currently pay, an outcome that many webcasters view as simply unacceptable," Potter explained.
According to DiMA, the offer comes ahead of a proposal by Senator Sam Brownback (D-KS) that would seek greater parity between the various delivery sources.
