"J-Pop Monday will have its finale on April 1. Copyright legislation, which calls for royalties on all songs broadcast over the Internet, has forced WNYU off the air effective 4/5, so 3/25 and 4/1 will be my final broadcasts."
Because of this sudden cancellation, J-Pop Monday will hold two anime contests, each offering a $50 gift certificate for Right Stuf.
