RIAA's idiocy really doesn't matter in the long run to anyone other than online broadcasters. People are going to listen to music on the internet. If it comes from outside the US or from non-RIAA acts, it just makes RIAA bleed faster.
Multicasting never took off because ISPs couldn't agree on how/where to support it. But peercasting is still around, and is vastly more elegant in resource usage than streaming.
Any $9/month server can run icecast and if their shows are good support tens of thousands of listeners.
