Music Licenses
Hi,
Does anyone know of a cheap (for us little pico stations) license format to play the ASCAP and such music?September 23, 2004 at 8:49 pm #11845mlr

a small loophole is to join a co-op for streaming (live365 or something like it), and use the radiated broadcast as a supplimental to your streaming rather than the other way around (semantics..)

Total posts : 45366I’m curious about this as well. The coffee shop next door had to buy a license to play music, how can we get away with it? Not that I mind–I just don’t want to get a fine.
