   Hey #Musicians, between Christmas and New Years, I've been pretty quiet about #Bandwagon.

   But I have a bunch of huge news that I'm super excited to finally share with you.

   Here's the full news release. I'll put highlights in a reply

     * Streaming Stations: launching an ethical, opt-in API with TheIndieBeat.fm streaming radio

     * Salute to Radio Free Fedi: the original Fediverse stream is going dark

     * Free/Premium: my commitment to make Bandwagon.fm free forever.

     * Search/Discovery: progress on a unique music-only search engine for the Fediverse

     * Licensing: assign CC/Copyright licenses to your work

     * Open Source update: more Bandwagon coming servers in 2025.

     Tim Chambers repeated this.

     I put the big news first, but I'll say it again so it doesn't get buried:

     When you publish #Music on Bandwagon.fm (or other #Bandwagon servers that launch later this year) you can just check a box to add it to the streaming rotation on https://TheIndieBeat.fm

     Open APIs FTW

     As I write this, I'm listening to a digital mix-tape of music -- some I recognize, and some I don't -- all from fellow Wagoneers.

     Awesome 🤘

     I can't find a license here. Is it fully open source?
