Pandora going bye bye - say it isn’t so

Posted by Chris under Broadband, Community, Technology

In what may be the end to Pandora, the recent decision by the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) to raise royalty fees that will cover the administrative costs of SoundExchange, may well be the end for Pandora

More info on the fees can be found here, thanks to ars technica, but this would seem to spell the end for not only Pandora but other great intenet broadcasters like Radio Paradise.

So stay tuned (pun inteded) but in the coming months as the new fees come due we may hear a lot less music out there.

    NOOO!!!! Man I am out of touch (been without internet for 3 days) and one of the things I really was missing was Pandora! Now to hear it might get the axe!

    Yeah, me I’m enjoying the last days of Pandora in what will soon be known as the day the music died (part deux).
