Subject: [playbackupdate] Site Update:
> Hello all fans of Live stream America Programming:
>
> Just a quick note to bring all of you up to date at once on things
happening
> here at LSA, and to assure all of you that we are aware of a couple of
major
> issues that we're working around the clock to get resolved very soon.
> 1. Anonymous log-ins:
> Those of you who are trying to download programming from our site using
our
> FTP server, are being told that anonymous log-ins are not allowed. This I
> assure you is only temporary, and is happening only while we are in the
> process of changing out our FTP server. This process may take several
weeks
> however, so please just be patient, and you'll soon be able to download
> programs from us once again. This feature is by no means going away, and
in
> fact, will be improved very shortly.
> 2. When is the new Mix program with Bill Scott starting?
> We are in the process of recreating the Mix web pages, and restoring
> previous additions of the program to our site. a process that may
actually
> take longer than anticipated. Bill Scott has 12 new additions of this
most
> popular music show featuring music from the 70's, 80's, 90's, and beyond,
> already on our server. And, beginning this Sunday, we'll begin the
process
> of making these shows available to you on a weekly basis beginning with
show
> 9 of The Mix. Eventually, you'll also be able to listen to, and download
> the older additions of the show as well.
> 3. What are you doing with discontinued programs?
> Discontinued programs such as the recently discontinued Forty Years Of
Gold
> program also hosted by Bill Scott, will very soon now have their own
special
> place on our site and you'll be able to hear them by going to our site:
>
> http://www.livestreamamerica.com
>
> and clicking on the discontinued shows or programs link. In fact, we'll
be
> bringing back all of the old shows that used to be aired on the site in
our
> very early days such as Two-Way Radio, and America Out-loud, and yes,
you'll
> be able to hear them all either on demand or download them as well.
> 4. What happened to this weeks additions of The Snowman Radio Broadcast,
> and Radio And Production, The Fun Side?
> The Snowman and I both took a break from doing our shows this week, and we
> both sent out messages to our show E-Mail lists informing our biggest fans
> who are subscribed to these lists of our decision in this regard. As far
as
> I know, The Snowman will be back next week April 15th with show #78,
unless
> we hear otherwise. I on the other hand, am taking a two week break from
> producing RPFS, so that I can better help Web Master Mitch Green address
the
> many issues being discussed here. I assure all of you that we are working
> around the clock to address all of these issues, and when all is said and
> done, Live Stream America will be an even better site with even more
> available for you to listen to, download, and enjoy than it is at present.
> Again: Please be patient with us.
> 5. Are you guys moving the server again?
> Yes. As of May 1, Mitch Green will be moving the server to even nicer
> quarters. The Green family is moving to a much nicer location, and Mitch
> will finally have the office and server room that he has wanted for the
LSA
> server for a long time now. As a result, LSA may go down for a time
> beginning on May 1. We're not sure how long the server will actually be
> down, but we'll be sure to post a message to LSA news when we have a
better
> handle on this issue. If you are not currently subscribed to LSA news,
this
> would be a good time to do so to ensure that you won't miss out on any of
> these developments. If the server goes down, Mitch will also post a
message
> to the web site as well, so that everyone will know what's going on.
> 6. What if I still have questions?
> I did my best as the Production Director for LSA to address all of the
> issues regarding our site that I am aware of at the moment. However: I
am
> simply the Production Director for the site, and may have missed something
> along the way. Again, I am doing what I can to assist Web Master Mitch
> Green in resolving all of our site issues, and I'm sorry that they are all
> happening at once. As Production Director for the site however, my
primary
> responsibility is to work with our content providers when asked by them to
> do so to ensure that all of their content sounds good when it hits our
site,
> and I'm always available to answer their production questions, should they
> have any. Many of the issues I addressed here in this message are web
> issues that only Web Master Mitch Green has direct control over. So:
> Unless your questions are production related, or about the program that I
> produce: Radio And Production, The Fun Side, please send all other
> questions to:
>
> [log in to unmask]
>
> Mitch will do everything possible to respond to you in a prompt and timely
> fashion. As I type this, Mitch is busily working to resolve the many
issues
> I've attempted to address in this message, and I simply wrote this message
> to give him a helping hand. Please also keep in mind as mentioned before,
> that the Green family is also making preparations to move as well. If any
> of you have ever moved, you know how time consuming that project alone can
> be. Now imagine doing it with 4 very small children involved as well, and
I
> think you can see that Mitch especially has his hands very full at the
> moment. Again: We'll do everything possible to resolve all issues, and
> have all content up and working as normal very soon. We're not going
away,
> or anything of the sort. And in fact, very soon now, we'll only be
getting
> better. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and I hope you found it
> informative.
