NO INTERNET RADIO FOR YOU! ONE DAY!


So, yup the Internet Radio Day of Silence is in full effect. The above image taken from Rhapsody's page.

Yahoo is sending people to SaveNetRadio.org.

KCRW is interrupting programing to discuss Copyright Royalty with:
  • Mike Riksen: Vice President for Government Relations, National Public Radio
  • Kurt Hanson: Publisher of RAIN, the Radio and Internet Newsletter
  • Tim Westergren: Founder of Pandora.com
  • Caryn Mathes: General Manager of WAMU, American University Radio
  • Ian Rogers: CEO of Yahoo! Music
  • Ted Leibowitz: Music Director of BAGeL Radio
  • Johnny Floater: General Manager of Media, Live365.com
And across the net, hundreds of other stations are silent or running PSA's. I'm hoping there is some positive outcome from this.
I have to say this is one of the best put together online protests I've ever seen.
