A group of music industry bodies – including the RIAA, A2IM, ASCAP, BMI and SoundExchange – has published an open letter to Google CEO Eric Schmidt about net neutrality. “The music community we represent believes it is vital that any Internet policy initiative permit and encourage ISPs and other intermediaries to take measures to deter unlawful activity such as copyright infringement and child pornography,” says the letter. “Our ability to invest in and create the next generation of music is grounded on crafting Internet policies and procedures that respect intellectual property. Accordingly, we are deeply interested in the details of your proposal as they may relate to the protection of content and to making sure that the distinction between lawful and unlawful activity has operational meaning.”
