radio silence on the net

Yes you might have noticed, those radio stations have problem streaming their songs. There is no problem with your connection or your player. The radio stations just stopped streaming. Some where out there is demanding to pay for streaming. So I guess that is it. And strange nothing was mention about the cut from streaming until the papers drop the news. So if that is the case, I have my cds, mp3, cassettes.... No ads, no trash talks. Cutting out radio from internet will not kill radio streaming. It just kill streaming of local radio.....
