When I am working at home I always listen to internet radio, mainly stations from Live365. The choices of available music is extremely varied on internet radio, much more than AM or FM has to offer.
The future of Internet radio is in immediate danger. The Copyright Royalty Board in Washington, DC has more than tripled the royalty rates for webcasters and left unchanged they will kill Internet radio. These exorbitant rates go into effect on May 15 (retroactive to Jan 1, 2006!). Without Congressional action the majority of webcasters will go bankrupt and silent on this date. We need your help. Please take a moment to send a letter to your member of Congress to keep Net radio from being silenced.
Won't you take a minute to fill out the form and let your Representatives know that you support internet radio? Thanks. Go HERE to read more and to send messages.
I got an automatic response from one and a thorough message from the other.

I didnt know I am going to check it out now.. thanks Scotty
OK....I'm just going to say it Scott....here goes....I've never heard of internet radio. never,never,never.
Doing some searching about this issue, I ran across this blog and wanted to let you know that this decision by our government is a travesty. I urge anyone that reads this to go to savenetradio.org, and be heard. Strength in numbers!!
First I've heard of it, but I will do my part.
