DurdeeRaido - The Internet's Number One Mixtape Show
It all began because there was nothing good to listen to on the radio... Broadcasting from Atlanta, our high quality MP3 internet broadcasts reach around the world. Walt Carter, DS Media's founder, had been experimenting with online radio since 1995.
After helping other companies with their streaming media operations, he decided that no one was going to create the online radio station he wanted to listen to, so he did it himself. We started planning the station in 2000, and officially launched durdeesouth.com in June 2001. DurDeeRadio was our first station, InnerEarRadio our second, DurDeeVision our third.
Over time we would add more channels... we were up to 9 channels when the DMCA CARP ruling came down and forced DS Media to either pay $500 a day in royalties to the record companies or go off the air. We had no choice but to suspend our streams.
Between June 2002 and November 2002, Walt learned a lot about politics. By enlisting DS Media listeners to write and fax congress, in November congress finally came through and passed the Small Webcasters Amendment Act. While the SWAA was not ideal and far from perfect, it would allow DS Media to go back on the air. Instead of $500 a day we would only have to pay $2000-5000 a year from now on.
We currently have 4 unique channels back on the air (with 3 more in the works, and ready to go as our resouces allow). The station is going strong. We get over 1 million "listener hours" a month, which makes us one of the larger internet-only broadcasters. But we're not looking to increase our audience by playing more mainstream music. We look for music and formats that aren't available on commercial radio, or formats that are "not being done right" as Walt puts it.
There are plenty of people out there who would really get into the music we play if they just knew about us. It seems that a lot of people agree, as we have garnered a lot of positive media coverage of DS Media.
What exactly is DS Media? We're a listener supported, commercial free internet radio station. This means no advertising or annoying commercial interruptions. Our mission is to expose great new music to people who otherwise may never encounter it.
