Re: [slim] Online radio stations strike big deal on royalties
Many fees for use of copyrighted material, especially music, have been too high for too long. Historically, owners of copyrighted material could charge high fees because the distribution was tightly controlled. This is called exclusivity. The revenue potential is so high that the history of the music industry is rife with stories of theft and squander. It's understandable that many owners complain that they loose money in a new world of free information and open networks of sharing. I for one, do not have compassion for those who lament disappearance of the old ways of commanding control of distribution. It's time for new business models that embrace the openness of the net. Here's an example: www.cdbaby.com. You'll notice that the musicians set prices and label fees are set up front, and the musician retains ownership. -- mark-e-mark mark-e-mark's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4726 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65373 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Online radio stations strike big deal on royalties
All these articles are all well and good from the end users perspective, but copyright holders ARE getting shafted by the likes of iTunes who are continually trying to devalue music. Just because it isn't a physical product doesn't mean you shouldn't have to pay for it. If you can't afford the costs your business model is flawed. If you don't want to pay what's owed for the BillyJoes favourite songs station then don't set it up. I agree there needs to be a reworking of the rights involved, and this appears to be happening, but there's a minimum value applied to music and if you you can't pay it then you need to reconsider your business model. If I decide tomorrow that I want to sell computers, but I don't want to pay the wholesale price, I wouldn't get to throw a tantrum and demand dell or whoever supply me the pcs at half price coz my business can't afford them. this royalty argument is a joke, music has been devalued enough, these companies are creaming it in profits, Music industry costs have dived in the past ten years, record labels wont even look at new artists unless they hand them an album that's 99% complete and yet the industry is still bitching and moaning about copyright holders fees.they need to pay up.

http://government.zdnet.com/?p=5290 Follow the money: If LAUNCH is interactive, then Yahoo (and thus, Pandora, and any damn webradio service in the world that lets you create stations or channels) would have to pay individual performance royalties for every song played. Big bucks for the RIAA! If not, they get only the statutory royalties set by the Copyright Royalty Board. They lost at trial but Sony appealed.

Re: [slim] Online radio stations strike big deal on royalties
Internt stations will eventually end up paying the same kind of royalties AM/FM stations are paying now. And theses fees will be payed for by commercials or listeners fees. At the latest when internet radio takes the place of traditional AM/FM broadcast. -- Locuth Use your PDA as SqueezeBox remote -- http://www.sciatec.de/SlimControl Locuth's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29693 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65373 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Pandora has a stupidly large number of stations, as does last.fm, rhapsody, etc.. Each would have had to pay an expensive base rate. (BillyJoes favorite songs! would count as a station, even if only one person listened, and even if he listened to it only once...) Several congresscritters actually intervened and put the new rates on hold, forcing them to reconsider the rates So, yes, it was Government Intervention that deferred the original rate changes and forced a reconsideration. -- snarlydwarf snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65373 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Online radio stations strike big deal on royalties
i think that article is factually incorrect. over the air FM/AM stations are NOT exempt from royalties, (what laughable hogwash!) they DO pay them, and pay them AGAIN if they stream, albeit under different terms. one doesn't cover the other. secondly, i know of NO gov't license for interent only stations, but there may be something to that; i'm not 100% on that, but i doubt its the way the article portrayed. -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 sbc (my home) / sbr (parent's home) - w/sc 7.3.3b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65373 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Online radio stations strike big deal on royalties
Thanks mortslim, I've been wondering where this situation was at. What is not clear, and what I fear, is that this only resolves the issue for the bigger streaming operators and the smaller operators may still end up getting pushed out of the market. :( I love the big boys in the market (Pandora, Slacker, Sky, DI, RadioIO, 181, AVRO, etc) but probably 50% of my Internet Radio listening is from small single stream operators that may still get the boot. :( -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65373 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
