   From: mdudley@king-cart.com   
      
   Recently there has been a lot of publicity about the people around here   
   being sued for listening to music on the internet.  We are behind a   
   large hill which makes radio reception difficult or impossible.   
   Therefore I have been listening to my favorite stations on the net.  I   
   am concerned that these articles seem to be indicating that paying the   
   royalties on the music is being transferred to the listener instead of   
   the provider, yet I cannot find any way to pay these royalties if any   
   are due.  What can I do to protect myself, other than stop listening to   
   radio stations completely.  Are radio stations typically bonded in case   
   I get sued for listening to them?   
      
   Thanks,
