Indie labels seek to sever ties with RIAA

From Dave Farber's Interesting People list: Independent record labels are fighting to have their names removed from the list of members posted on the Recording Industry Association of America's Web site. Many of the indie labels say they are not RIAA members. Some worry that the association with the music industry's crackdown on file sharers will hurt their image with fans. They haven't been able to get the RIAA to remove their names from its website, so they're threatening to bring copyright infrigement lawsuits. NPR has an audio report here.
