SaveNetRadio.org
SaveNetRadio.org – One of the things I really enjoy about programming is throwing on some headphones and getting down to business. Most of those times I listen to internet radio, and I’ve discovered a lot of great music I never would have otherwise (even whole genres I would have never really discovered). Well, thats about to come to an abrupt end, with a new law about to go into effect increasing the royalty fees for internet radio broadcasters by 300 – 1200% (according to SaveNetRadio.org), which will effectively shut them down immediately. If you care about this issue at all, head on over to SaveNetRadio.org and see what you can do to show some support.

I’m 55 and divorced with my children grown. There isn’t a radio station on regular radio here that plays the songs from my past. NetRadio keeps company when I really need it. Please don’t take it away.

I enjoy listening to net radio whenever I am on line which is usually once or twice a week. I would be most dissappointed if the radio stations I choose to listen to, without advertisments, were removed from air.
Thank you for taking the time to play so many great songs.
