XM Sued by Record Labels Over Portable Media

US satellite radio firm XM is being sued by the major record labels over the Inno, a device that lets users record satellite radio broadcasts to be listened to at a later time. According to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), the Inno, which stores music and divides it into tracks, infringes copyright. The RIAA's view is that the Inno turns XM into a download service that resembles Apple's iTunes. The lawsuit seeks $150,000 for every song copied by XM customers to an Inno.
