What's Happening to Gospel Music?
We are in the month of May 2008 and nothing exciting has occurred in Gospel music to date...what is happening to Gospel music? I mean; the year ended really bad for most artists labels but you would expect some kind of rebound by now but i guess we just have to wait and see if the economy changes for the better.
Another thing...Internet radio listenership is up and advertisers are making the switch, but will small Internet stations benefit from these ad sales, and if so, how can we compete with the larger stations for ads? Just a thought and would like your feedback.

Copyright Royalty Board's Decision For Internet Radio
It is a sad day for indie artists in America! Internet radio stations have provided an outlet for not just major artists, but also Indies for years now, giving exposure to our music on a global level. To think that greed has played such a huge part in wanting to stamp us out is totally unbelievable and unacceptable.
It's funny that as a member of ASCAP since 2000, I have not seen a dime for the airplays that my project receives both here and abroad in six years, yet they claim that they are trying to pursue the artists' interests. It is obvious that only the interests of the well-known artists are being pursued.
As an Internet radio broadcaster, my solution to the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) is to request a written statement from the artists granting us permission to play their music royalty-free if these artists need the exposure that these stations has been providing them for years to continue. No one knows the struggles that it takes financially to keep some of these stations on the airwaves especially when the artists whose music you are promoting do not support your station.
Another solution to this mess would be to move to another country such as Germany where you have more freedom as Internet broadcasters...something to think about. It would be a terrible thing to wake up one morning only to be be listening to overseas Internet stations only.
If this bill takes effect, it's going to come back to haunt the music industry BIGTIME!!!
