Question & Answer Thread

[Kraven]

Questions...

1- How many hours of LIVE broadcasting per day? Will some segments be replayed or will there be some dead air at times.

2- Old time radio dramas?

3- Would there be a possibility of a Call in show? Sports, entertainment, UFOs?

4- Bandwidth requirements?

5- Must the DJ actually speak? ie " Live from who knows where...and up next, U2!" While introducing a song, can we go all Steven Van Zandt on it? "Back in 1977, these cool cats from the motor city...."

Cheers, K

What about talk shows? Does that run into issues with the Artist/Song information?

No problem, since the Artist/Title info is so the software can keep track of royalties during a music program. A talk show would be your own original content so you'd be good there.

Who's on the hook for royalties?

The station has that covered. See Scott's post covering the rules. (#10)

1. During times of no live shows the station plays music from the 70's 80's, 90's & today. No dead air.

2. If you have some that's fine.

3. Whatever type show you want, so long as it's family-friendly content.

4. If you have high-speed internet (DSL/cable) you'll do fine.

5. If you want to speak & you have software that will allow that, it's fine. If you don't want to speak that's OK too, your choice!

I talked with Scott. You're good whenever you're ready to do it.
