Hey Guys, Im from the UK and my target audience is the UK so i cant go with loudcity or live365 as they only cover US and mainly US listners, i could swing and say i am targeting the US but its a bit dodgey, is there anyother sites like LoudCity which cover the UK, im in despret need or im looking at £300 a year for license, when im 100% non profit, and have to pay anouther £100 on top for ads to get money back

 

this is no surprise why so many go pirate, im seriosly thinking about it.

 

if they want people to have a license they should make it resonable for the average internet station.

iv seen http://www.swcast.net/licensing-uk/ but i will give them a ring tomorrow to check on things, its a right bitch to find things for the UK, PPL contacted me, thats why, and they want near £200 and so on and and extra £100 for advertising to even pay for it its a right rip off, for the UK and so complicated, there are thousands of stations without licenses if they made it a reasonable price less people will go pirate most people would rather be legal, i know i do, but if its costing £300 a year i cant afford it on a non profit station.

I use webradio world and they cover the PPL licence but you need to get the PRS MCPS licence your self , It's the LOEL (limited online exploitation licence ) costs £125 inc VAT for the year

 

eehhh wait a sec, PRS covers it all right? or am i missing something here?

 

Edit : checked it out, and i guess i was wrong... bummer :(
