Message From A2IM

This was sent to me earlier from the people at A2IM.

The music industry - artists, labels, retailers, distributors, publishers, artist representatives, and all of the service providers that rely upon income from music for their own businesses - all have a vested interest in promoting the fact that artistic creation has value. If you believe music has value please join us in asking Congress to do all they can to protect music from online theft. We need a game changer! Music revenues continue to shrink and good people - including too many passionate independent music lovers - continue to lose jobs. Click HERE to see the letter and enter your info so that it reaches your representatives (and please forward this to your artists, business partners, and friends and ask them to participate as well). It only takes 1 minute.

As someone whose livelihood depends upon a healthy music industry...is the opening line of the letter. That's you! Don't sit on the sidelines. Remember that independents are an important part of our industry, our nation's culture and economy, and we need to be heard. Click HEREand participate.

Best regards,
