Hello FA listeners. Been a bit since the last FA News post – my apologizes.
Here is what’s new:
Flashback Alternatives removed from Tune In
About two weeks ago I received notice from Tune In that Sony requested Flashback Alternatives be de-listed from Tune In for copyright violation. The reason was that Tune In still had us listed as a US based station and was probably caught up in a licensing take down BOT. Back in August you may recall we became part of the SonixCast network. As we are part of the Sonixcast network we are licensed in Canada through SOCAN. Flashback Alternative broadcasts through Sonixcast‘s servers in Canada. We are 100% fully licensed and in compliance.
While there was an opportunity to contest the take down notice, I was informed it would be costly and not worth it, so I had Flashback Alternatives removed completely from Tune In. I am working on options to have a presence on TuneIn, so stay tuned. Until then, we are still listed on many services including iTunes and Shoutcast. You can, of course, also tune in via the FA Website. For those looking for a mobile app, any app that either supports the Shoutcast directory or where you can manually add a stream will work. If you need assistance, please reach out to me in chat on the FA Website or via e-mail.

As always,thanks for listening to Flashback Alternatives!
