We are currently working on hammering out the details of how this will work, for now what you guys can do for us is this:

 

If you want to be a DJ on this, any music you plan to play on your shift, you have to get written permission from the record label or the artist (depending on who owns the copyright). The most effective way to do this is send e-mail to the label and let them know we are starting up an internet radio station and is building a play list and need their permission to play songs. Most likely they'd want to know what songs/artists you plan to air but if you are upfront with them they are most likely to agree.

Once you have permission you have to own a LEGAL copy of the music. Either by CD or iTunes or something simular. No illegal downloading.

Now that you have your music we'll need to keep a database of what songs we can use, so let us know what you've already got access to use. Indie atrists that do not have copyrights we do not need to have permission to use but its good form if we do.

Next, build yourself a 1 hour playlist of how your show will work to be submitted and approved. The approval is just the cross check with the database of songs to make sure you do not play something we do not have the right to play.

We'll need to know how many of you are willing to do this so we can make it available to everyone so we can set rules of signing up for air time.

This whole process is alot of work but will be well worth it in the end. Once we get a good database started and relatons with labels it will be no work at all to get you on the air.

If you have any questions about this please feel free to contact me and I'll answer them as quickly as I can.

Pretty much, the idea is, you sign up for a shift. You do what ever you want to do with that time. Being music, talk, sports. When it comes to scheduling, I plan to run off Zulu time which is also GMT time if I'm not mistaken. Pretty much once we find out how many people are interested we'll limit how many hours a person can sign up to do per-day so its more fair. But if someone doesn't sign up for shift then it would be fair game to whom ever wants it. We'd pretty much have schedules set maybe 3-5 days in advance maybe? Anything that is not scheduled for that day you can pick up. But what ever you do with your time is up to you, just remember you'd like to keep people listening as much as possible, otherwise you are just talking to yourself lol.

Aaaaand there's where we hit the brick wall when this idea came up last.

 

Which part getting the permission to play the songs or the legal copies?

[Modgers1]

As far as I can remember Jack Sparrow was being a little girl about the whole thing.
