    So 2 days and internet radio dies eh?

    So I guess according to SaveNetRadio.com there's only 2 days left and then all those cool net radio stations will be shut down. What really sucks is the fact that they might actually die.

    I listen to Yahoo! LaunchCast and last.fm for the express fact they're cool and have lots of music on 'em.

    Cheers,
    Daniel

      I'm strange, so I listen to iTunes' Japan-A-Radio...I'm going to miss it terribly...

      Seems the Internet Radio Equality Act isn't exactly going to be passed fast enough in order to save it. Since the increased royalties are retroactive until 1/1/06, most stations will go bankrupt on the 15th. I just hope most of them are corporations, so that the owners/managers/whatever aren't liable for the companies' expenses.

                      Breaking news! According to SaveNetRadio.org, the new royalty rates are being put on hold while negotiations are to held to determine what rates are fair.

                      I knew Friday the 13th would be a good day.

                          Damn. I was about to post that.
                          But yeah, WOOHOO! I can listen to those Japanese stations in addition to Launchcast and last.fm.

                              I could NOT live without last.fm. Really.

                              Thank God for the ability to flip-flop.



                              or

                              And you should use this:
