Live 365 is coming back not necessarily Mouse World Radio
They've been teasing that since July. I have reservations.
They set up a refund email account when they went out of business in January but only ever sent a robo-replies, no refunds. They still owe me ~$70, they owe others far more.
Plus, just because they say they are coming back, it doesn't mean it's the same company, or even the same business model, it just means someone plans on using the trademark/brand. The new company may be Live365 in name only. The royalty rate increase that broke their last business model still stands, I expect any new Live365 to have to handle content in a much different way than before. One of the reasons MouseWorld went away is because the other services they tried couldn't verify tracks for royalty tracking.
Yeah...what I thought...another streaming company, that caters to broadcast radio stations, bought Live365 at a bankruptcy auction in July. This is little more than buying up an established trademark for marketing.
