The rules and rates for playing music over the internet are set to change dramatically on July 15th because of a recent decision of the U.S. Copyright Royalty Board. The Day the Music Died: Web Radio in Peril is a half-hour Pacifica Special covering the impact of this ruling. Originally aired on KPFA July 7, 2007.
We want to hear from you! Send your feedback about this show to: webradio[at]kpfa.org.
Day of Silence Recap: Savenetradio.org estimates that June 26th's Day of Silence action generated over 350,000 phone calls to members of the House and Senate. However, as reported in a Businessweek article entitled Webcasters' Plea Falls on Deaf Ears, House Small Business Committee Chairwoman Nydia Velazquez (D, N.Y.) has stated "I really don't think Congress would be the best type of vehicle to resolve this type of issue." Watch video of the Small Business Committee's hearing entitled Impact of Royalty Increases on Internet Radio. Learn more about the ruling at kpfa.org/savewebradio.
