Save Our Internet Radio

Save Our Internet Radio is a new blog launched this week in response to the proposed royalty rates recently announced by the US Copyright Royalty Board. The site is managed by Bill Goldsmith, who started the popular online station ParadiseRadio with his wife Rebecca, along with Trevor Moyer.

They have also started an online petition drive to collect digital “signatures” for their open letter to the US Congress.

If you are concerned about how these new royalty rates might affect bluegrass radio online, you may be interested in their efforts.
