As I previously posted some time back, we've named
DreamRadio1 the "Official Radio Station of Ufopals.com"-- Not sure what that really means, and I have to admit some amazement that they actually seem quite pleasantly delighted with this dubious honor!
I guess "pleasantly delighted" wasn't a reaction I expected from a legendary gang of reclusive
outlaw pirate radio broadcasters-- chalk that up as one of life's little surprises.
Of course, my next step was to try to convince them to let us stream their broadcasts from our homepage. Unfortunately, though, we've hit a little snag here. They're open to the idea, but because they operate by subscription only they're afraid that allowing streaming on Web sites such as our own will put a damper on what little revenue they manage to plunder. Even pirates gotta make a buck, I guess.
Is that the end of it? Well I did briefly entertain the idea of hacking in an illegal stream-- pirating the pirates, so to speak. But it occurs to me that even outlaws can retain lawyers. Probably not a good idea.
They've suggested a far better solution-- They're considering allowing us to stream selected playlists that they handpick for us. They haven't firmly committed yet, but since they are the ones that brought it up in the first place, it's probably just a matter of time. And patience, on our part. As soon as I hear one way or another
I'll post the news here, so be sure to check back often. And keep your fingers (tentacles, or whatever terminal appendages your species possesses) crossed!
In the meantime,
Here's a link CLICK HERE to a recent playlist they posted on Rhapsody. Enjoy.
