Our channels: sources and licences

Besides the broadcasters it lists, Global Radio plays 2 channels of its own, made only of public-domain recordings. No presenters, no ads.

The rule every recording passes

• The music: the composer died before 1956, so more than 70 years ago, or the archive files the work as traditional.
• The recording: released into the public domain by whoever held it (CC0 or a public-domain statement), or old enough to be out of copyright, as stated by the archive that published it. The link to that statement is kept for every recording.
• A recording with any of this missing or contradicted is left out, not assumed.

The channels

• Classical: 278 recordings, about 25 hours
• A century ago: 327 recordings, about 18 hours
