Well, in the case of DI (and many other genre stations), the audience is
truly global. For them, technically it doesn't matter at all where
they're 'broadcasting' from. And it's just not true, that there aren't
any internet radio stations located outside the US ... [emoji6] And, I
for myself live in Europe but outside the EU ... [emoji6] 

But the problem truly are the RIAA and all the othes.
