for music lovers:
Jul. 27th, 2005 11:13 amOK. I think we're all (vaguely, at least) that the record industry has always been shady. Payola schemes happen now and again.
Sony just got dinged for $10 million for a payola scam. $10 million! Shit - they can just write that into their advertising budget.
But check this - read for yourself emails sent within Sony discussing their tactics. (It's kind of a big .pdf, just so you know.)
And turn off your radio.
