Radio gives up on webcasting.

Renda Broadcasting's WSHH-FM (99.7) and WJAS-(1320) ceased their
online broadcasting feature on January 1, 2009 "due to escalating
royalty fees for online streaming broadcasts." WMNY-AM(1360) remains
online. You might recall that Renda Broadcasting was among the first
to pull music from the internet a number of years ago when the RIAA
challenged whether there should be further royalties incurred for
broadcasting over the net.
Way to drive using the rear-view mirror, guys.

And make sure to shut down your electricity when that bill gets too
high, too.

Like it or not, webcasting is going to be the future...Either paid or
free, nationwide web Internet access will be available with every
dashboard being web enabled....

Already we're seeing an internet radio made by Blapunkt for
automobiles. I have to ask the question, what does Blapunkt know that
radio doesn't?

Maybe somebody should ask them?

The Internet Royalties, and lack of demand, may have also killed
Bonneville's iChannel HD Radio Network, and CCU's Format Lab HD Radio
streaming. What a shame, wait until the RIAA finishes off terrestrial
radio/HD Radio.

Eduardo - FM radio is going to have to become just like the successful
news/talk/sports formats on the 50kw AM stations. One FM (105.7) in
Baltimore, Md. already flipped to all-sports.

There already are all sports FMs in places ranging from Detroit to Portland,
OR to Denver... the first moves have been news/talk formats, now in the
dozens on FM, and now Sports is moving there.

Streaming Pandora, Last.fm, and Slacker also killed streaming
terrestrial radio.

Pandora has been slipping me an ad for a Fox show recently, but it's like
only once every couple hours.

These stations are all basically flawed. They have an interesting premise
(pick a song or artist and hear lots of related stuff) but the algorithyms
don't work properly. Pandora works better than most, but my Sheryl Crow
radio station will faithfully play me the very same songs every day by
Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, Norah Jones, U2, etc. with very little variation.
Songs I've told it to remember from other stations won't even play for
several hours after starting up. I'd rather use the mp3 player on shuffle -
I get a better variety.

Unless those have moved to the Live365 model of prepaid licensing, they, too
are doomed (as, in reality, is Live365, but for a different reason). Most
of the streaming services are not legal from the standpoint of copyright
ownership/licensing, and will eventually be shut down by the RIAA and others
like them. This doesn't mean that someone won't pop up to replace them, but
if Napster has taught us anything, it's that the powers that be will win out
eventually, if not in the total war, in most of the battles.
