Small talk: Grant axes internet simulcasts over fees

GRANT Broadcasters has shut down simulcasts of all 71 of its stations on the internet rather than pay record companies an additional copyright fee for online streaming. Grant Broadcasters director Dugald Cameron told Radio Info: "I see it as a necessity as a result of the record industry’s ridiculous claims." The stations would stay off the net until the record companies came up with a deal Grant could live with, he said.
