That is why the vast majority -- if not all -- podcasts are spoken word. Radio Fairfax is part of a public access operation paid for by cable TV companies in Northern Virginia. I pay $26 in annual dues and they take care of the royalties through an agreement with the music industry organization responsible for collecting that is similar to the agreements it has with public radio and military radio operations. You also can stream my show anytime you wish at https://www.mixcloud.com/Flashfriend/ Mixcloud also takes care of the royalties and allows me to post my radio shows at no charge. Please don't ask me how they make money doing this because I haven't figured it out yet. Thanks for listening, Dr. Zarkov [ Edited by: Dr. Zarkov 2019-12-11 16:14 ]
