We Are Off The Air

Live365 is now completely off the air - as are we, in compliance with the expiration of the Webcaster Act of 2009. This last year, we worked our way up to the 32nd most popular station in our genre, and the 1,937th most popular station overall out of the hundred thousand broadcasters on Live365. We would like to thank Representative Jay Inslee (D-WA) and President Obama for making it possible for small web casters and micro casters to operate, and we hope in the future this opportunity will exist again. We would like to thank our benefactors who made the station possible, especially the estate of Louie Piper, without whom we would never have made it on the air. And, as always, our deepest thanks to our listeners and volunteers who made our station what it was: a fantastic place to find music to lighten your journey, and sacred programming to help you find your path. We're off the air for now, but we're not done by any means. We've seen that this can work, and work well, and we will absolutely be back on the air as soon as it is possible. Be excellent onto each other, always.

We will stop broadcast on January 31, 2016

Recently, the Copyright Royalty Board, the governing entity for establishing the sound recording royalty rates that are paid to copyright holders, has published the new rates for 2016-20.

The previous provisions for small webcasters to opt for a percentage of revenue model were not renewed.

Under the new rates, we would need to pay approximately $50,000 more annually to continue broadcasting.

We are looking for other options to continue broadcasting, and sincerely hope that Live365 and other web casters will find a solution, but this change in the licensing provisions basically means that most if not all small stations such as ours will be going off the air on January 31, 2016.

Advertisers who pre-paid us for advertising in February and March will receive a 100% refund.

Thank you for all your support - this has been tremendous fun, and we are sorry to see the age of small web-based broadcasting come to an end.
