Maybe we ought to prepare a little statement for the website on this. We simply don\u2019t have the license to give away somebody else\u2019s product, which is what we\u2019d be doing if we downloaded music. If we included bumpers or the parodies, or even the opening theme song, the entertainment industry, music and video, very, very, very concerned about piracy, and there are stringent laws. We have hundreds of thousands of subscribers and for every one of you that would download the program every day with music in it, we would be illegal. We would be violating the law. We would be distributing music free, even if it\u2019s not a complete song, not enough of it fits under the banner of fair usage, and we\u2019re not going to break the law here. So it\u2019s just the program for now. <\/line><BR\/>We\u2019re always trying to change these things and get permissions from various entities to include their work, but we\u2019re running up against a brick wall because so much piracy is going on out there, and once you steal something, it\u2019s easy to spread it around to your friends and they\u2019re just trying to get a handle on this. So that\u2019s why. If we wanted to write and produce, create our own bumper music and do that, we could, if we wanted to give that away, but somebody else\u2019s we just can\u2019t. So for now it\u2019s audio only.<\/line><BR\/>END TRANSCRIPT<\/line><BR\/><strong>Join Rush 24\/7 Now&#8230;<\/strong><\/line><BR\/><a href=\"\/\/\/home\/Rush247.html\">(&#8230;and never miss a Rush podcast)<\/a><\/line><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windows\/windowsmedia\/en\/download\/default.asp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/why_no_music.Par.0005.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"18\" class=\"alignleft\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEGIN TRANSCRIPTI keep getting questions, &#8220;Why no music?&#8221; Let me go through this once again.
