[Dixielandjazz] Royalties for Performers - Satellite & Internet radio

[David Livingston]

Live365.com, the host for my Dixieland Gumbo station, http://www.dixielandgumbo.com , charges $5 per month on top of their regular charges to cover Royalty fees. This doesn't seem like much but my Total Listening Hours per month is a very small figure compared to the main stream Jazz, Rock and R&B stations. Here is their explanation on the various charges involved in Internet broadcasting. http://www.live365.com/costtobroadcast.html

This is probably too good to last but check out the below article.
"SoundExchange" is collecting and paying "performer" royalties. A very good
reason to give your CDs to Satellite and Internet radio stations.

Plus, if they play them, you'll not only make money, but you'll help expand
the audience for Dixieland.
