Rob Durkee - was on the AT40 staff during the Shadoe Stevens years (listen to just about any of Shadoe's shows and you will hear Rob's name in the closing credits), wrote the book American Top 40: Countdown of the Century, and generally considered one of the top experts regarding American Top 40. Part right, Matt-Rob Durkee actually joined when Casey Kasem was still hosting the show, and Rob would later become the most valued member of Shadoe Stevens' "Whiplash Acrobatic Ensemble," namely his AT40 crew when he took the reins of American Top 40. Rob Durkee and Pete Battistini are the best experts in finding out information on all things AT40 and the Billboard charts at the time. Rob is also the guy credited with linking Premiere Radio Networks (which airs the classic AT40 shows, as well as the new edition with Seacrest) with businessman turned remaster expert Shannon Lynn, who helps re-engineer the classic Casey shows for rebroadcast in digital format. Rob, Pete, and Shannon are the "triad" when it comes to keeping the memory of the original American Top 40 alive and well. Incorrect. Rob joined the staff in 1989 |

Rob joined the staff in 1989 Last I remembered, Brett, I DID hear Rob Durkee mentioned in the credits of AT40 in August 1988 on the last show Casey did for ABC/Watermark. He officially became part of the show in 1989 as Shadoe's best stats man, but I'll put it on a stack of Bibles that Durkee joined right before Casey's departure. If I'm wrong, OK, so be it. |

Guys ... we were serious when we said that there is to be NO discussion of trading shows publicly or privately on this site. A relatively new member who decided to violate that rule now finds himself banned, which is what we said would happen. PLEASE...we want to keep this forum open. Posts like that will jeopardize it. Thank you for your cooperation.

I'm surprised this question has not been asked yet, but here goes. I understand the rules regarding AT40 trading, does that also include other shows, such as Weekly Top 40? Countdown America? American Dance trax? A blanket policy for all trading or trading restricted to just AT40? (whether they are Shadoe Stevens/Ryan Seacrest shows or not).
Just checking for clarification.

I'm guessing yes for all of the above since it all falls under copyright laws.

Sadly we now have to point out what should have been the obvious: Posts advertising the Internet broadcasts of old shows without the permission of the copyright holders are also a violation of this site's rules, with the same potential consequences.
Thank you to those who have brought recent posts along these lines to our attention.

Thank you to those who have brought recent posts along these lines to our attention. I learned in a leadership role at work that sadly even things we think should be obvious aren't to some. |

I don't post anything like this, but just how is someone suppose to know who has permission from the copyright holders or not?! It isn't exactly public information!
Please explain.

Scott, I am not sure what you are referring to. Please elaborate and give examples.

My guess is if it is not a terrestrial station airing the current Premiere show package or the SXM airings -it isn't legal. Plain and simple.

Here's a better way to say it. There may be slip ups. It's possible that now or in the future there could be Internet only stations legally carrying it, I dont know. However, there are stations that have aired it that you absolutely know are doing so illegally. Those are not to be advertised in any way here. If it is brought to yours or the boards attention someone is illegally airing it on a station you mentioned and you continue to do so, you are in violation. I don't think Scott yearns to kick people off the board for honest, non dealt with mistakes. There's a difference.

Brett is correct. There are NO Internet-only radio stations outside of iheartradio.com (and the associated app) airing the shows. Therefore, any advertisement of a streamed show on anything other than iHeart or a commercial radio station's site/app is a violation of the rule.
Thanks all.

So that means the radio station in Australia that airs a commercial free version of an off time AT40 show every Friday afternoon is doing so illegally?
