November Fundraising Update
Based on our current level of donations, it still looks like we're going to be behind $18-20,000 by the end of the year. While this is an improvemement from last month where we were projected to be $35,000 in debt, we still need your help to pay our bills this year. If you're not already a supporter, please donate to SomaFM today!
If everyone who listened regularly (there are about 150,000 of you who tune in once or more a week and have been doing that for over a year) donated just $10 we would have enough money to operate SomaFM for a couple years!
By the way, here's a breakdown with our monthly subscribers, which in October we had 1700 monthly subscribers:
We bring in about $9000 a month (net, after credit card merchant fees) from our monthly subsribers, so this is a very important source of revenue for us!

Fundraising Update
Thanks to everyone who supported us in October. We put a $12,000 dent into our projected $35,000 deficit for the year. If we can repeat October in November and December, we'll have it made.
