"NAB backs royalty study"

congressional economic-impact study on the proposal. Music First
spokesman Marty Machowski says the debate is no longer about whether a
royalty should be adopted, but if lawmakers should wait for a study’s
outcome before moving forward."

We'll see a flip on FM to AMs' successful news/talk/sports formats.
The royalties ARE going to happen - LOL, Eduardo!

All they have to do is quit playing the crap the major labels put out,
and get a bunch of locals and independents to fill the void. *Now we're
getting somewhere.

"Bonneville pulls iChannel Music"

"Bonneville has pulled the plug on its iChannel Music HD Network and
streaming. For the most part, it has replaced the HD multicast with
WorldBand Media content (brokered ethnic programming). iChannel
allowed indie bands to upload their music online for consideration...
We commend Bonneville for giving it a shot—it allowed radio to expose
a lot of new, unsigned indie bands from around the world. CC Radio's
eRockster HD2 format is still around at a good handful of stations and
still outstanding. If that gets shuttered, a good bunch of us just
might be done with HD Radio listening altoghether."

It did not fail... someone came and offered money to use the HD2, vs no
money for the indie channel.

Oops PocketRadio - Bonneville just turn a Dozen
or so non-profitable HD-2 Channels into Profitable
HD-2 Channels --- Sure Sounds Like Good News
for FM HD-Radio and the real 'potential' for extra
Income Streams from HD-2 Channels.
