In about 18 Days, Internet Radio will die because of the new Internet Royalty Rates that were decided by the Copyright Review Board (see Broadcast Law Blogs very good coverage here: here).
This not only effects radio stations, but also DJ’s, Second Life Club owners, and anyone who listens to music online. The new proposed fees will turn off a lot of radio stations (and have already shut down a few), and aggregation services such as Loudcity.
I would ask that anyone who cares about Internet Radio, please look at the Save Net Radio campaign, sign a petition, and support legislation that makes these royalty fees fair for broadcasters to continue to operate online.
