Hey JD


What's up with the tunes playing this morning?  Thought today was supposed to be a day of silence in protest of RIAA??

maybe not because we won a 2 month reprieve?

Is it just my feelings or does anyone else feel a day of silence kind of defeats the purpose. Should't we have a day of online protesting, maybe a looped segment all about saving our radio?

One day of silence to me means one less day of great music......

Yeah, that was an issue I had too. Faced with the prospect of only a few days of music left, did we really want to throw one away?

Everyone involved was trying to decide what would have more impact, complete silence or a looped speech explaining what's happening.

I guess they had a day of silence in 2000 the last time internet radio was almost killed and it had quite an impact. Now that internet radio is MUCH bigger they think it's a real tool. We can talk all we want, but some people don't get it or don't beleive it. I think the broadcast community thinks when people are forced to go back to regular radio for a day they're realize what they'd be losing.

Hopefully none of this will matter. If we can get something done before July we shouldn't need a day of silence.
