I lied when I said that I had never been to reddit before. I have. And now that I went back, I recall why I quickly left. What a convoluted, ridiculous, stupid place.

Anyhow, I am now a member, and await upvoting instructions from the mission commander...

BellGabbers!

Please meet at UFOSHIP.COM chat at 5:45 ET/2:45 PT for a strategy chat for Art's AMA.

We will also be posting the link to Reddit once it's available.

Also, we will post basic instructions on how to use the Reddit thread...

Jimmy Chunga and I started Reddit several years back, so I can direct all the newbies through it!

(ps...there is an experienced support team on call to answer any questions you may have.)

Chefist...

Coast trying to counter Art's announcement by announcing a new science advisor... I'm sure that'll work.

Hey BellGabbers :wave: ...long time lurker and my first post.

Not sure if THIS is the big news, however it's pretty big..huge market and first Canadian affiliate!!!!

Canada: Toronto, ONT â€" CFRB 1010 AM
http://artbell.com/radio-stations/

Art/Keith had posted this a few weeks ago and then it disappeared. Art actually was really excited about this station when it was first mentioned and now it looks like perhaps they have now confirmed??

I have been watching regularly since I live in this market.

If this is not the great news....it still is great news.

Congrats Art & Keith for getting millions of "tasty Canadians"!!

Hi Freyja, welcome to the madness. I just got in and am in the process of catching up. I just got to your post and have about 2 pages to go, I think. And that's only in this thread. I have hit THE big news yet I don't think, but there's plenty of other big news as it is so far.
Hail Funyun!

Terrestrial Affiliates Inquire Here

Posted on May 29, 2015 in Radio Show | 9257 Views | Leave a response

Thanks for your interest in carrying Art Bell on your radio station. We will not be allowing Internet Only stations to carry our program as this would affect our music licensing and also influence our listener numbers reporting. If you are a real AM or FM terrestrial station, read on.

To be considered for becoming an affiliate of Midnight In The Desert, starring Art Bell, as broadcasted by the Dark Matter Digital Network, you must agree to the following terms.

1. You must carry the entire 3 hour show. From the top through 2 hours and 58 minutes. Keep in mind we are up to 30-seconds delayed from real-time, our servers have built-in buffers and we also add an additional 7-second delay for editing purposes.

2. No replay or archiving of our shows is allowed. We need to protect our membership subscription model.

3. You must have your own blanket licensing for commercial music in your country. We cannot allow relay streaming of our show, as that will incur additional music licensing cost. You wonâ€™t be covered by our license. If youâ€™re streaming to the Internet you must turn it off during our broadcast.

4. You are allowed (but not required) to cover our feed with two 2-minute breaks each at the :58 and 1:58 breaks (end of the first and second hours). So itâ€™s 4 minutes of your local ads over ours. Of course at 2:58 mark the show is over. Again adjust for streaming server buffer delays. There will be adequate bumper music into and out of the break for you to adjust your automation timings.

5. Otherwise you must carry all our other breaks, which will be floating anyway. So for automation purposes, you can insert your ads at those two fixed times/hard breaks. Your commercials should be appropriate for our programming.

6. We will try to enforce market exclusivity on a first come, first served basis. We would of course favor larger stations.

7. You must receive our program feed from our hi-quality AAC streaming server (not MP3). You should use a dedicated computer (with nothing else running including background tasks like Windows update) using an appropriate player that receives AAC or a hardware device like the CC-Wifi radio, hardwired into your network. Do not use Wifi (but you knew that).

When applying for affiliate status, please acknowledge that you agree to these terms, include your geographical market area, your operating frequency and call letters of course and send this to affiliates@artbell.com .

Once reviewed, weâ€™ll give you approval status. We may revoke your affiliate status at any time, should you fail to meet these requirements. Youâ€™ll be listed on an affiliates page at ArtBell.com with your city and state.

Thank you for your inquiry.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Unless I am misunderstanding something, streaming must be shut down.

boxman · July 13, 2015, 09:21:40 PM

@Hog
From what I have understood this only is a issue when it comes to internet ONLY stations. From what I understood having a stream is perfectly fine as long as they are also on the airwaves.
Edit: nm.. Should have read the part you highlighted... Kinda find that odd since earlier comments by Art suggested to me that streaming was ok.
