The beauty of the internet is its ability to allow for creative ideas to flourish on such a universal level. Internet radio is one such example of a very successful venture that only the internet was able to facilitate. Unfortunately when someone is getting paid for such ventures, it usually means that someone else is not. In this case, it was the record labels. I am glad that they came to an agreement for royalty sales rather than making it impossible for popular sites, such as Pandora, to continue providing their service.
