A: Yes, if you plan to operate a commercial online radio station using our platform, you are required to obtain the necessary licenses and pay royalties to the artists and songwriters whose music you play. This involves securing agreements with appropriate music licensing organizations that cover the rights to broadcast music publicly.

For non-commercial radio stations, the licensing requirements can differ. While you may still need to secure some form of licensing, the terms and costs could vary based on the nature of your broadcast and the jurisdictions involved. It's important to check with local regulatory bodies or music licensing organizations to understand the specific obligations for your station's operation.
