Welcome to iWebRadio
Hullo Campers!
Due to a corruption in our MySQL database and some coding problems. The iWebRadio Page had to be completely redone. Unfortunately this means we lost all registrations, Logins and settings. Please re-register. We have since setup a backup procedure which was not available to us before. Hopefull this will prevent this from happening in the future. We apologize for any inconvienience. Many functions that we used to have, but which werent being utilized, have been removed.
Also, the Forums version we had (phpBB 2.0.17) seems to have been the culprit in the first place as trying to put it back together, the Administration functions again toasted the MySQL making it unusable. So as a precaution I have installed a NEW phpBB version 3 Forum totally seperate from the website. This has 2 drawbacks...One, it means a seperate registration from the iWebRadio page and 2 it means you wont recieve notices or private messages thru your iWebRadio User pages. My apologies again but we are trying to resolve these issues once and for all!
If you have any problems or questions, email or join the Chatroom and please contact either myself (MADcHATTER) or Marth and we be be happy to help.

Whats been Playing!
Artist for May is...
Sixx:AM.
Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx has looked death in the eyes and lived to tell about it. He’s written The Heroin Diaries, a book which tells the story of a year where he was living the life of a millionaire rock star, but was also dealing with a crippling heroin addiction that nearly killed him.
In addition to the book, Sixx put together a band called Sixx A.M. and wrote a soundtrack that corresponds with the chapters of the book. The band includes vocalist James Michael and guitarist D.J. Ashba. An eclectic mix of musical styles and raw emotions. Compared to previous works by Sixx, this may well be his swan song!

If music DRM is dead, the RIAA expects its resurrection
|

Anonymous writes "By Jacqui Cheng | Ars Technica Published: May 08, 2008 - 02:11PM CT
Despite widespread declarations of the death of DRM in music, the Recording Industry Association of America insists that it's far from dead. At the Digital Hollywood conference taking place in Los Angeles this week, the organization argued that DRM is still used in the large majority of music distribution methods. Not only that, but DRM is poised to make a comeback to make up for where it has fallen.
"(Recently) I made a list of the 22 ways to sell music and 20 of them still require DRM," RIAA technology unit head David Hughes said during a panel discussion, according to CNet. "Any form of subscription service or limited play-per-view or advertising offer still requires DRM. So DRM is not dead."
Hughes' statement comes just four months after the last of the Big Four music labels decided to ditch DRM for some sales. Sony BMG joined EMI, Universal, and Warner in selling DRM-free MP3 files through Amazon's MP3 service (in addition to a rather large handful of independent labels), making Amazon the only online destination that sells unprotected music from all of the majors. Other music stores offer some DRM-free selections too, like the iTunes Store, the Zune Marketplace, eMusic, and Amie Street, to name a few.

RIAA escapes sanctions, drops case against homeless man
|

MADcHATTER writes "By Eric Bangeman |Ars Technica Published: April 18, 2008
So far we've had grandmothers, dead people, disabled single mothers, and today, we can add another category to the list of those targeted by the RIAA: the homeless. Earlier this week, the RIAA decided to voluntarily dismiss the lawsuit against Chaz Berry after learning he was living in a homeless shelter—but not until after a magistrate judge denied an earlier motion for summary judgment and recommended sanctions against the RIAA's attorneys.
Berry was sued by the RIAA in February 2007 for copyright infringement after an IP address logged by MediaSentry on a P2P network was traced back to his AOL account. When the time came for Berry to be served with a copy of the complaint, the RIAA discovered that he had vacated his apartment. A pretrial conference scheduled for April 19, 2007, was postponed for 60 days at the labels' request, due to the RIAA's professed inability to serve Berry with a summons at his last-known address.
The RIAA said in its April 17 filing that it was "conducting a thorough address investigation" so it could serve Berry with a copy of the summons. But that wasn't quite right: it turns out that the RIAA's process server slapped a copy of the summons "in a conspicuous place" at Berry's last known address on April 9—a full eight days before the RIAA said it couldn't locate him. The process server's attempts were detailed in an April 25, 2007, affidavit completed by the process server, who also said that a copy was sent via first-class mail to the same address."

RIAA doesn't want to pay for a fair defense, says victor

Anonymous writes "By Eric Bangeman | ArsTechnica Published: March 26, 2008
Even as exonerated file-sharing defendant Tanya Andersen pursues her malicious prosecution case against the music industry, there is some unattended business left over from the RIAA's original copyright infringement lawsuit. After the RIAA threw in the towel on its lawsuit against Andersen, she sought and won an award of attorneys' fees. The two parties are now trying to settle the bill, and the RIAA is only willing to pay one tenth of what Andersen's attorney is seeking.
Andersen's attorney, Lory Lybeck, is looking for just under $300,000 in fees from his defense of Andersen. The $298,995 figure submitted to the court includes a "multiplier" of two times the "reasonable" hourly rates due to the "high risk, successful" defense (Oregon law allows for multipliers).
In a brief filed earlier this month, the RIAA called the $298,995 figure "excessive" and said that it should be drastically slashed to something along the lines of $30,000. In the RIAA's opinion, Atlantic v. Andersen was a "straightforward copyright infringement claim," and the labels' independent expert believes that the fees sought are excessive "in numerous respects."
Lybeck takes issue with the RIAA's characterization of the case in his reply to the RIAA's brief. "Contrary to plaintiffs' argument, this copyright case was anything but typical or 'straightforward,'" argues Lybeck. "As the court has previously found, the proceedings were complicated, prolonged, and made more expensive by the plaintiffs' unreasonable tactics throughout the case." "

Thats right it's here people!
Not only is Internet Radio available on any SmartPhone capable of Internet Access, now Internet Radio streaming to your car isn't a pipe dream for years away. It's available right now, and using the new Ford SYNC, it's available this Fall using voice command. Known as "GeekCasting" the ability to access Internet Radio stations is the "Not-So-Distant-Future" today. The new line of Fords with SYNC will allow for easy access to Internet Streaming Radio through simple voice commands and will interface with most any SmartPhone or even BlueTooth.
Check out the video news about this revolution. Now Internet Radio will be able to challenge Satellite and AM/FM radio on its own terms. What will this mean for the future of Internet Radio? Well with the capability to "GeekCast" to commuters in their cars, the face of Internet Radio is about to change. And the future is looking good...
What does this mean for iWebRadio? A whole new venue to get heard, a new way to get listeners and a new medium in which to grow. Could this mean oversight by the FCC in the near future? That may very well be. We here at iWebRadio will keep an eye on these developments and bring them to you. In the meantime, the ability to be able to enjoy iWebRadio and other Internet Radio from your car is no longer a pipe dream. So dont be surprised if you one day hear iWebRadio in your car!

Swedish Record Labels See Filesharing as Virtue
|
|
Anonymous writes " Written by Ernesto on February 27, 2008
While the RIAA sues its customers, and blames filesharing for the decrease in record sales, a coalition of seven independent Swedish record labels explores alternatives that make use of the Internet and filesharing technology.
The increase in music piracy is a signal that customers want something that is simply not available. High quality, DRM-free music that they can buy online for a reasonable price. Filesharing , and the coalition of Swedish record labels understands this, as they introduce The Swedish Model. They write:
"We in the music industry have shown ourselves unable to follow in this change. Some of us have even waged war against those the music is recorded for – the listeners. The rift between producers and consumers has never been bigger. “The truth is that Internet has provided us with a fantastic grey scale of possibilities! Instead of fighting back we ought to obtain learning from the daily newspaper and the computer game industries. They early realized the superiority of the internet and developed new services there.""
