Question

Hello. Is it permissible to listen to songs on the internet in terms of theft (without downloading), like Shabbat mixes, etc.? And Kol Chai Music radio - should one be concerned that it is theft?

Answer

Hello and blessings 

An organized radio station will not upload songs without permission, as the owners will immediately sue. 

Unofficial websites depend on the situation. If you suspect that it is something unofficial and unauthorized, there is a problem. 

Today, there is quite strict supervision on this matter, and it is not very common to find sites that publish unauthorized songs.
