SF routes Wavlake song payments through LNbits: a Wavlake track costs 210 sats, with 90% going to the original artist and a 5% kickback to the radio. Regular library requests cost 21 sats as an anti-spam fee, with longer tracks priced higher.
SF said the radio hopes to add a Creative Commons Zero and public-domain lane containing about 350,000 songs, bringing its catalog close to one million pieces. SF also asked musicians to use Wavlake and invited donations of music and equipment.
Lake describes how electrologists at Real Electrolysis's Lakewood clinic organized in total secrecy, only discovering a parallel union campaign at the Vancouver branch when those workers staged an emergency walkout.
Lake explains that Real Electrolysis locked employees into predatory four-year training contracts by financing an expensive program through Oregon-based Zap Masters. Workers faced up to twenty-one thousand dollars in debt if they left early.
Lake states that Real Electrolysis switched from direct deposit to paper checks in late March, leading to systemic check-bouncing. This cash-flow crisis prompted the workers to organize with the Industrial Workers of the World.
