100.3 The Sound: no stream on this Vinyl wednesday?

Why is the livestream not working today? I like to hear this Vinyl wednesday. Before 6 AM it working fine for me.

They may turn it off to comply with DMCA (no album tracking) even though an LP is not digital... or it may just have broken.
 
It's partly the DCMA and mostly ASCAP/BMI at work here. The rules for streaming servers in the US are that you cannot play more than 2 tracks from the same album (or more than 3 tracks from the same artist) in a 3 hour period.

The Sound is merely acting accordingly rather than getting into a tiff with the royalty companies. Dems the brakes.
 
What a shame. Early in the night I had no problem with the stream but after 6.00 AM the connection lost. So somebody stops the streaming encoder. I hope tomorrow or tonight they put the stream online again.
 
Another sterling example of the music industry's successful plan to make music less a part of our lives.
