BIBLE VERSE FOR TODAY (John 3:16-19)
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil."

 (Live 365 situation, as of January 20, 2016):
The news is out... Live365 will be closing down on  January 31, 2016. A number of listeners E-Mailed me expressing concern about how this is going to affect Old Christian Radio. (Old Christian Radio started on Live365 as an experimental station on March 7, 2000 and continued on Live365 for close to 16 years.)

Old Christian Radio will continue after January 31, 2016 on another streaming service provider. (The change over will take place within the next two weeks, God willing.) A new experimental station with a new service provider will be set up and running within the next few days. (More on that when it happens.)

Here is what is happening...

Live365 will be shutting down January 31st. The whole issue has everything to do with a change in how USA music performance royalties are calculated for those who took a statutory music performance license through the USA Copyright office. Soundexchange, an affiliate corporation of RIAA (Recording Industry Association Of America), is responsible for collecting royalties and enforcing compliance under the statutory licensing model. (Live 365's former arrangement was the "percentage of revenue" performance royalty calculation model.) The "pay by song" model they will be forced into will make it too expensive for them to operate. 

Old Christian Radio has opted out of paying SoundExchange performance royalties back in 2007. It was at that time I decided to go with the "direct permission" route with the respective artist and labels.
This is explained here: http://www.oldchristianradio.com/donations.html

If Old Christian Radio had to pay performance royalties to Sound Exchange on a Statutory License... The new licensing model would have cost me over $3000 a month (due to the large audience size of Old Christian Radio.).

God bless you and have a good day.

[03-14-18] (updated) -- OCR is terminating its relationship with Live365.com and has moved to a different radio hosting provider. OCR started broadcasting with Radio.co effective 12:00AM Central Time (USA) on Tuesday, March 6, 2018. 

[03-20-18] (updated) -- The Live365 stream has been shut down, effective March 20. 2018 at 10:54AM CST.

The new station platform is totally "ad free."

[03-14-18] --Here is the situation with Live365...  I've have received a lot of listener complaints about the audio ads being served on OCR by Live365's ad network. I have brought this issue of "bad ads" up with Live365 repeatedly. The "ad network" controls it and they can't do anything about it.

I feel that the ads were more of a distraction than a help. I had no control over the advertisements served by Live365 on OCR.  After 4 months, I decided to end this experiment. I'll just trust God to provide the money

Also, I have been having a lot of problems with Live365 dropping my station stream. (This has happened a lot.) It is hard to build a loyal listening audience to be a blessing to when I can't keep the station on the air 24/7. 

The New Live365.com is not nearly as good as the OLD Live365.com. 

I decided it is time to terminate my relationship with Live365.com and move on. 

I have moved Old Christian Radio to a new broadcast provider. [It is Radio.co out of Great Britain.] -- I can't seem to find a good reliable provider in the USA that can do it was well as Radio.co. This transition has begun at 12:00AM on March 6, 2018. 

The Live365 stream will stay online for about a week longer. This will give other sites linking to OCR time to change over to the new station stream. 

My testing shows that Radio.co "light years" ahead of the new Live365. The new station stream is sounding much better than the Live365 station stream. The OCR stream on Radio.co will not have any hosted ads. (I hope and pray that the revenue will be enough to pay the music licensing and hosting fees.)

The two basic ways I will raise money for OCR is: DONATIONS and SPONSORSHIP ANNOUNCEMENTS. I will only promote products and services that would be of benefit to OCR listeners. The announcements will sound similar to what is done on PBS or NPR. (More on that later)

__________________________________________________________________________________

10-08-17-- Old Christian Radio has moved back to Live365. (Live365 has new owners and they made me an offer that was hard to refuse.) -- The new player is a lot better than the old Securenet player. It is more simple and "streamlined." This player is "mobile" friendly and will play on Apple IOS (using Safari) and Android devices. [When the station comes up, you may have to click the "play button" to start listening.]

3rd party websites who link to this broadcast please note: Please update your listing to the new station tune-in address: http://live.mystreamplayer.com/oldchristianradio

Please let me know how it is working: mcfadden-michael@sbcglobal.net 

From here...What's the future of Old Christian Radio (OCR)?
1. OCR will continue to be a conservative traditional Christian Music Station with NO "Christian Rock." 
2. More new conservative music will be put on the air.  
3. Newly redesigned website (in the future.) -- A better Facebook presence.

Old Christian Radio Mission Statement
Thank you for visiting my website and listening to Old Christian Radio. .

I've created a unique kind of Christian radio station on the internet.... Old Fashioned Christian Music Radio is a station that plays great old fashioned Christian music with NO "Christian Rock".

My station ID's every song played as it's played, along with the last two you heard (or missed).

My other website http://www.oldchristianmusic.com sells nearly all of the music that is played on Old Christian Radio.

This is an ALL MUSIC station.

The main mission for this station's existence is to be a blessing to the Christian community by playing Godly Christian music that doesn't sound like the devil's music.

The musical emphasis on this station is of a Godly spiritual nature. (Music that appeals mainly to "the flesh" is NOT played here)

This station's music format is: Sacred/Traditional Christian. 

About 99% of this station's music came from "in-print" CD's of artists (past and present). Some of the artists I play are: London Philharmonic Orchestra, 16 Singing Men, Tom Fettke And Billy Ray Hearn, Linda McKechnie, Rudy Atwood, Don Marsh Orchestra, Old Fashioned Revival Hour Choir, Ron Hamilton, Majesty Orchestra, and many others. I will add and announce new titles and make them available for purchase, as I am able to do so

Now... Please allow me to introduce myself...

My name is Michael McFadden. I live in Grand Prairie, Texas. I'm an Independent Baptist. I've been saved for a lot of years. I work in the PA/Sound room (primarily during the Wednesday PM Services) of my local church (Trinity Baptist Church, Arlington, Texas). When I was young, I had a long standing interest in radio. Radio was a fascinating field to me. My dreamed that I'd be on radio someday broadcasting good Christian music. I've never liked what is called today's (worldly) "Christian music" and "Christian living". Because of what I've seen in many churches, in my younger years, I resisted many opportunities to get saved. When I became an adult; I believed on the Lord Jesus Christ and got saved from my sins. I told God that I don't want any part of that phony, worldly Christianity being practiced today. I decided to become an "old fashioned Christian" (as the way that Jesus would want me to live) in how I live my life and in the music I listen to.

If you like this station..... Please BOOKMARK this site and do your friends a favor by telling them about Old Christian Radio.

God bless you and have a good day.
