RIAA Removes FM Recording From Creative Zen Vision
There are a number of MP3 players that incorporate FM radio, and some that have FM recording capability. It seems like now, the RIAA is legally challenging this "record" feature as they did for XMSR. This makes Sirius' agreeement with the labels even more significant.

The RIAA Claims Another Victim
CNET Asia reported on October 16, 2006, that Creative will strip away the FM recording feature from its Zen Vision:M player with firmware revision 1.50.02. The RIAA is purportedly behind this revision. Recording an FM broadcast would appear to be well within a user's right. Unless companies like XM stand up to the RIAA, the RIAA will continue to trample on the rights of listeners to timeshift their music.This issue is not dissimilar to the lawsuit brought against XM by the RIAA.
