What happened to WSM on line.Can you answer this Boomer?

Post by Ray Jenkins »

Boomer; I know this is a tough question,however you seem to me to be the mos t knowledgable about whats happening in Nashville.The statement made when I try to bring up WSM is as follows,"Temporarly off the net because of rights holders". We finally get music that has a great mix of traditional and new country and once again we get kicked in the theeth from something that seemed to be really good for the Country Music Industry as a whole.Who are the "Rights Holders"? Why don't they want us to hear thier music? Thanks for listning Boomer. Ray

Ray - I'm not very computer literate; however I use yahoo.com and bring up wsmonline.com and I don't get that response. If for some reason you're still getting that, the best thing to do is call the radio station to verify the problem. It may have something to do with BMI, ASCAP, and SEASAC, as those are the organizations responsible for relations between publishers/writers and radio. Best, Boomer
