Hi, and thank you for visiting our web site.
My wife and I (Jenny and Bill) enjoy audio listening, especially Old Time Radio shows. I started my own personal web site with links to live and on-demand audio streams back in 1998. In 2000 I got my own domain name, BillSparks.org, and moved up from hand-coded web pages to a database of links using the Links CGI scripts from Gossamer-Threads.
After trying out various hosting companies, I chose Forsite.net in 2001 to host my database of links. The positive feedback from friends and many people who use my database of audio and news links has made this a rewarding experience. Please feel free to go to BillSparks.org to hear a large selection of the shows now sold in the CD store.
My collection of Old Time Radio shows grew and I started to share them with friends, both via online downloads and by making CDs for them. As the expenses of this endeavor have increased (I'm spending well over $2,000 per year on it.) I decided to sell CDs online to bring the joy of Old Time Radio to more people, and also to help defray the costs.
We started in May 2003, with a Miva Merchant Storefront and shopping cart system, a simple yet professional way of doing business online. At this point we set up a Merchant Account to accept credit cards online and a toll free telephone service.
Now, the business and our collection of shows have grown so much, that in July 2004, we moved to a more complex storefront, with graphics and audio links.
You can reach us between 9 am and 5 pm Eastern time. If you call and get our answering service, please leave your phone number and we will do our best to call you back to take your order or answer any questions, as soon as possible.
So, look around the store. Please let us know how you like it, and how you think we should improve it.
Sincerely,
Bill and Jenny Sparks
Thanks for shopping at Bill Sparks' Old Time Radio CD Store
