ZDNet is reporting today that the Justice department “widened its antitrust investigation of the online music business, sending civil subpoenas across the industry that focused on alleged use of copyright rules and licensing practices to control distribution.” In some good news, “The probe encompasses the two new online-music ventures backed by the industry’s five major recording labels.” Hopefully, this will lead to the decision that the RIAA abused its copyrights and lose the right to defend them. Heh Heh he said “probe”.
