What if All States Take Record Companies to Court?

(PRWEB) May 19, 2006 -- Everyone in the music business knows that Universal Music Group will pay a $12,000,000 fine for illegal practices (commonly called payola). The charges were brought by Eliot Spitzer, Attorney General of the state of New York, and the money will go to... the state of New York.

This got Scott G to wondering about the verdict. "Why will the money only go to one state? What about the musicians and fans in all the other states?"

G, who is a consulting creative director at G-Man Marketing (www.gmanmarketing.com), suggests that 49 more states should take the major record labels to court and makes his case in his "Communication Nation" column, which appears exclusively on the Advertising Industry Newswire (www.AdvertisingIndustryNewswire.com).
