"The lawsuit by TSR Records, filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, builds its case on Sony BMG's "pay for play" civil settlement in July with New York Atty. Gen. Eliot Spitzer. The company paid a $10-million fine and admitted that some employees used improper promotion practices. Among the allegations: Sony BMG employees gave plasma-screen TVs and provided travel to radio programmers."
Nothing new.. Only Sony music business practices.
