Internet Radio Dies ...thank you RIAA

Published by Stan Schroeder June 25th, 2007 in News, Web

Today is the day when most of Internet’s radio station go silent. If you’re an avid net radio listener like me, you already noticed, because your station either died mid-program or got interrupted by a message saying, basically, the RIAA is killing us.

Instead of a flat fee, Internet radios (even non-commercial ones, which is most of them) will have to pay a price per performance per listener, at a rate that will, simply put, force many of them to close down. Now the hour when this will start being enforced - July 15 - is drawing near, and the broadcasters are trying to draw attention to the fact that they simply cannot pay these new rates.
