i'm comfortable with the low-fi stream off di.fm.

exactly, we live in an era where most people don't want to pay for anything, they should just pay up or shut up

Do you comprehend what you read, or just choose to make up your own facts?

Digitally Imported has a contract with TheRadioDepartment.com to host ASOT in the future. DI has pay streams as well as free streams of 96k and below. The funding that DI receives from the pay streams as well as from advertising will go to TheRadioDepartment.com and the producers of the tracks that are featured on ASOT in the form of 'Royalties.' The $ will not go to Armin.

Does that make sense?

I thought he would understand what i mean, but maybe like you said he's forming his own ideas.

UWM, i understand! but how did the producers of the tracks made money if the show was played for free so far? the show was played on id&t radio... so you want to say that id&t paid money for the producers of the tracks armin played? in israel it is not like this. it sounds good for the producers!!! really nice...
the producers make money when the tracks are sold when released in some way.

I don't know what sort of arrangement ID&T had with the producers whose tracks were featured on the show, but I imagine they paid some sort of royalty fees because I know it was 'suggested' that Armin play particular tracks on his radio show.
