[HCDX] Threat to streaming audio
The Phonographic industry, the group representing record companies in the UK, are to make it impossible for radio stations to stream audio outside the UK. A clause in the PPL's new license for commercial UK broadcasters may result in the shutdown of those stations' Internet streams to listeners everywhere else in the world beginning April 1. Sounds like there needs to be a lobby group set up quickly!! Any volunteers? Mike ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2006 is out.

Re: [HCDX] Threat to streaming audio
This is not a April 1 joke. In Finland most radio stations cannot offer streaming audio because one certain copyright organisation (performers Gramex): http://www.gramex.fi/ This legal copyright group is charging so huge amounts of money from Finnish broadcasters that even our public (state owned) broadcaster Yle is not able to offer live streaming audio, see: http://www.yle.fi/rfinland/index.shtml You can hear only talk shows but no music. Yes, there are few Finnish radio stations offering streaming audio: http://www.radiohelsinki.fi/ But they are playing a risky game with the possibility of losing much money in the future depending on the decisions of our courts.
