 Musicians supporting free internet campaign dusty  
 2007-04-02 16:58:33 NME      
Webcam / Internet Some idiotic American Internet Service Providers (ISP's) have set their sights on changing how the internet operates and want to charge a fee to let some sites load faster than others.
According to the Rock The Net website, the musicians are endorsing "Net Neutrality - the principle that preserves a free and open internet...and ensures that all users can access the content, or run the applications and devices of their choice."

The statement continues: "As musicians and entrepreneurs, we understand the importance of treating all websites equally - from the busiest online music store to the smallest blog. We urge Congress to support network neutrality."
Read the full article here.

The official website for Rock The Net can be found here. A total of 246 bands and 57 labels have joined the effort. However only 291 people have signed the petition, so go there and sign the petition!

I had a huge "excuse me?" moment reading this. Who in their right mind would pay a fee to have their website load faster?! If my isp started to do that, they would no longer be my ISP, plain and simple.
