In an arcane aspect of U.S. copyright law, the Librarian of Congress is about to set rates for what Internet broadcasters must pay for the privilege of streaming copyrighted music online. Depending on how the rates are set, some insiders believe the announcement could put some Web broadcasters out of business. James Turner of the Christian Science Monitor has been following the story.
