In The United States, Internet radio is currently in danger. On March 2, 2006, The CRB (Copyright Royalty Board) approved royalty rates that will bury any small webcaster, and create a heavy burden even for big broadcasters like Yahoo, AOL Music and Pandora. How high will these rates be? Around 100% of a small webcasters revenue, give or take a few points, in most cases.
While Treasure Island Oldies is based in Canada and not affected by any other country's laws, tarrifs and legislation, I feel compelled to support my Internet Radio colleagues in the United States.
