General Radio Discussion / LIVE365 is No More!
« on: February 03, 2016, 1614 UTC »
As of February 1, 2016, the Internet radio pioneer Live365 has closed shop, after 17 years.

I’m sure the new EU royalty rates had had a major influence on the decision to close down.

Here’s a screen capture of the parting message from Live365’s web site...

+Another reason for pirate radio!!!

It's a simple but deeply meaningful tune:
"Radio" by Alkaline Trio

How will so many fall asleep now?
I caught about 20 minutes of him early this week, talking to a "doctor" who was describing how to teach aliens to cook...
That's some hard-hitting, cutting edge info right there!
I thought he hired security for the ranch, yadda, yadda, yadda...

When will people see these stunts are no accident..?
