How
To Support Old Christian Radio As Old Christian
Radio's audience continues to grow, so does its expenses. 1. Current Listener Statistics

Christian Radio's two major expenses are: Bandwidth and Royalties. As
for music licensing and royalties... 1. Live 365 takes care of the ASCAP, BMI, and
SESAC licensing and reporting. (Their royalty fees are added to my monthly bandwidth bill.) 2.
LISTENERS PLEASE NOTE: Due to the recent changes in
the copyright law (brought about by the Copyright Royalty Board ruling of March
2, 2007), OCR has done the following (As of June 1, 2007): OCR has limited its
airplay ONLY to artists, musicians, and labels who have given OCR "direct
permission" (AKA "direct license") to play their music. (In
short, OCR has gone the "direct licensing" route.) That means
that OCR is NO LONGER paying license fees to SoundExchange (AKA RIAA). OCR is
avoiding airplay of any content that is produced by or is associated with the
"big four" major record labels. (The only exception is Linda
McKechnie, who personally granted OCR "direct license" to play her
music on OCR.) However, OCR will continue to pay "songwriter fees" to
ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC. FYI: All webcasters must pay royalties
(ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, RIAA) or get airplay permissions, regardless of their status.
(Non-profit, Non-Commercial 501(c)(3) "airwave" radio stations (like Family Radio) are EXEMPT from all those
requirements. If they webcast their radio stations, they pay a greatly reduced rate to
SoundExchange while maintaining their ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC royalty exemptions.) Here
are a few ways you can help Old Christian Radio 1.
