The following is an announcement from Brian Landrum, WSM Program Director.
Beginning March 15th, we will launch a new subscription plan with an introductory monthly fee of $6.50 for high-band listeners to WSMonline and for selected WSM archives. For your convenience, you will also be able to sign-up and save on a full year subscription for only $65.00! Registration for the service will begin a few days prior to the launch.
With your subscription to WSMonline, you’ll be able to listen to 650 AM WSM at the highest quality, while having access to exclusive Internet specials and other unique programming. You will enjoy shows like Eddie Stubbs’ Classic Show, a special country legends series, great concert events, as well as album premieres that you can not hear anywhere else.
This new subscription plan allows WSM to continue serving Internet listeners across the United States and around the world. WSMonline will offer the low-band stream at no cost as well as access to the information and contests on our website. We appreciate your support of WSM as the premier source of classic country music.
I have emailed Mr Landrum to ask what the fee might be after the "introductory" period and will let you all know as soon as I receive a response.
They have also announced that Eddie Stubb's Classic Saturday show off conventional radio and offer it as part of the online service. They have replaced Eddie's show with Classic Country Weekend with Bill Cody which has been running at miday on Saturdays.
I can understand why they are doing this because of the costs involved in streaming on the internet and the royalties they have to pay for the content. It doesn't mean I agree with it. You don't think they might be trying to "get the gray out" of Saturdays? Nawwwww, they wouldn't do that. Would they?
