    People want …
    People want something for free. If people want a real radio then they must go back the old fashion way and start themselves a radio company. You people want your ice cream and cake that means you want free Internet and want us Americans to make exception for you for your business. No! No! No! You are going to make us Americans have problems with other countries by changing the Internet laws from free to paid and that is why other countries want to take the Internet.

    Internet has nothing to do with your personal business you like to have over the Internet and that’s that.

    Now, Americans are making all these laws how Internet suppose to be operate allowing people to make personal laws on the Internet because they have business however this is not what the Americans told other countries about Internet while Americans are in charge as of now but the way us Americans are making laws for the Internet other countries right now would like to remove the Internet from our government. Internet is a free Business Advertisement.

    If people want to …
    If people want to risk money investing in selling music over the Internet that would be their business but they should no that Internet is for free. If they paid music companies for music, America does not have anything to do with that besides that is the entrepreneur risk. Anytime you deal with Internet especially as a business its a risk because it is free. It’s just like if Americans abuse Internet and make laws another country would like to take Internet out of the hands of USA.

    We must think why …
    We must think why Internet was invented. Internet resources of information suppose to be free providing resources and information from around the globe for free now people are making laws for Internet and websites and radio station this is the only free enterprise we have in America and I think we should not take it out of contents. If Internet suppose to be free than allow it to do so, stop writing legislation and all these people for cost to free Internet. No laws, No trouble

    you want the music, you pay for it.
    imagine a company invests millions in a band, then everyone steals thier music and they lose money, no more music.

    This could be a blessing in disguise. Online stations could broadcast music by independent record labels and artists. Radio might actually improve and the little guy would have a better chance of getting into the business.

    SaveNetRadio is funding by media conglomerates (Yahoo, Microsoft, etc.) with the goal of paying as little money as possible to artists, who are mostly “little guys” just trying to survive. F$&!@ SaveNetRadio.
