still free for 96kbps and lower though...
what do you think about this? will more and more stations start to charge listeners? (what if ASOT was to be "pay per listen" :whip: )
i can understand them, but... :mad: |

it seems to me like it was eventually goin to happen.
Remember those free ISP? Juno and Netzero..free internet at first, but now they're chargin money.
I dunno, i dont like it, but it seems that this is the way the world works |

I used to love listening to DI, however i have stopped in the past few months, mostly because, when i was listening, a lot of the music in the rotation was from a few years ago, and while it's good it does get repedative and boring.
I still did like listening to Musicology, Oslo Nights, and the occasional True to Trance.
Oh well, more power to them. There are some really really good stations out there still. |

| yes but they have to pay for everytime they play a song (RIAA fackers), and its cheaper for old osngs |

Actually, i believe it is a flat rate per song, so even if the song is 5 years old, it's still the same as one released 2 weeks ago, per listener.
The only thing i can think of is the amount of transfer and bandwidth used by the 128kbps streams, and that is probably the reason for the cut. |

Hah!
Paying to be able to listen to a radio... what bs. |

| that sux. i thought 128 would stay the same and 160+192 would be the paid service, guess not. 96k sounds ugly |

Paying for listening to radio is out of the question, in fact I think they are quite stupid to try and pull of this stunt.
They could save money by shaving off all the other bitrates. The only bitrate needed is 128kbps. Listening to music below 128kbps is intolerable...
BTW: Way Out West ing rule |
