If BillG can't cut a deal with the body that is charging him, and many smaller internet stations, royalties at a rate they cannot afford, he might have to just shut it all down. The way the rules changed on January 1, it could cost him tens of thousands of dollars in royalties every month to stay on the air.

This is not an April Fools Joke.

ETA: Go read BillG's Open Letter to David Byrne for background on what he is facing.

gotcha. thank you. i hadn't read that.

i would totally understand, but i'd be quite sad, too. we met so many dear friends because of this website and radiostation.

It would be tragic for the RP Journal to go away...I, for one, have spilled my guts on more than one occasion in a journal entry. I've begged and borrowed in journal entries when I had no other place to go and this community held me up in my time of need. I shudder to think what might have happened had I not had this immediate access to this community via the journals...I used the journal to write part of my growing up in Liberia story while more opiates coursed through my system than probably should have been allowed...If the concern is strictly the amount of work needed to constantly remove spam I will happily volunteer for the job. {#Wave}

This is pretty much what I was trying to say (although I probably shouldn't have been so aggressive about it). I'd surely miss the journals.
