What’s Going On – Industry news, U2

Merry Monday, y’all!

Hope y’all are having a great week so far!

Just a heads up that Scene Now will be on a short holiday for the remainder of the week and will return next week (12/29). I’m taking a little time to celebrate the holidays and my mom’s birthday! Woot!

Speaking of the holidays, Billboard has a wonderful idea – you can send two free music downloads to a soldier (and, no, it doesn’t cost you a thing, except a few minutes of your time). What a great gift! Click here to send music to a soldier.

Here’s the news for this Monday…

• Warner Music has pulled all its music from YouTube.

• Speaking of more industry stuff, the RIAA will track ISPs instead of users to combat piracy.

• Here’s more scoop on the new U2 album.

• Not sure how I feel about a new show about female werewolves – or its name.

• Here’s a story about how Shooter Jennings is completing some of his dad’s unfinished work.

• The Barenaked Ladies are turning 20 and releasing a boxed set to celebrate.

• And, finally, VHS really is dead.
