It should be pointed out that whether you are using a radio or or a
streaming music source, NEITHER of these methods is "royalty free". You
must buy a license from SOCAN. The stations themselves may also prohibit
this use.

Of course this also applies to playing CDs.

The last time I checked the licenses are cheap though.
