RIAA gone
CDs cost $7-$10
Radio stops overplaying the same stupid songs to the point where even if they ever had potential to be good, they are now annoying.

1) The $8 CD thing
2) More money to artists
3) More support for emerging artists that haven't had a big hit yet but have talent.

(1) Prevent any company from owning more than one station in a city.
(2) Crack down on payola
(3) Not allow any record company or affiliated company to advertise on a music station.

This would end up resulting in more variety on each station and probably eliminate the Station Programmer position.

1. break up clear channel's stranglehold on radio stations (Mr. PD said this too)

With this alone, it should shake up the radio industry and start allowing "unknown" bands to get airplay again.

1. Change the RIAA into the RAAA (Recording Artists Association of America)
2. Reinstate FCC regulations limiting station holdings.
3. Bring one hell of an anti-trust and price-fixing case aganst the music industry.
