Supporting AM 1710 on the Internet

By listeners taking care of the cost of streaming it has certainly kept this station alive for the longterm instead of it being an expensive hobby I would have had to give up. I would like to say that AM 1710 is commercial-free but in fact there are those antique commercials in the shows. I'm not making anything on those :-)

The streaming expense for 2010 is 2,870.00. The monthly expense for streaming for the last 10 months of 2010 is $224.00/month.  In addition, this year we are replacing the aging 2002 Mac G4 (which does all the storage, backup, scheduling and playout) with a new Mac Mini and external backup HDD. That will be $800.00. And with our legal issue this year in contesting Sound Exchange's claims to royalties, we've also incurred $1,000.00 in legal expenses. But that is still a lot less than paying the default royalty rates.

So our total expenses this year are $4,670.00.

I update the total contributed for the year on the left column myself as I receive each donation.

Please consider a donation to help keep the free-will support model a success.

Here are three methods to make a donation:

I've setup Plimus, which is usually for products, using $6.00 increments, so that you can make a donation with as many increments as you like without having a PayPal account
