Hi All,
I work as a syndication manager for various different radio shows. Many of my company's clients also post their radio shows online, on services such as SoundCloud and iTunes, as well as syndicating them to a variety of national and online stations.
I was wondering - what is there to stop an online radio station simply downloading/streaming the show off of a service like SoundCloud and iTunes and broadcasting it without going through a syndication manager, such as myself?
Obviously, it would be morally questionable to broadcast a show without the producers permission, but is there anything physically/legally stopping them from doing that?
Thanks!
Jim
