+   Copyright (c) 2026 Dusk-92.
+   All rights reserved unless a specific file states otherwise.
+
+2. Historical WowRadio code
+   Portions of this repository descend from older WowRadio code credited to
+   Tormentor @ Mannoroth, belthazor, and later Vanilla maintenance/backport work.
+   No explicit project-wide license was identified in the currently known
+   upstream repositories during the 2026-08-31 provenance audit.
+
+   This file does NOT relicense that inherited code and does not grant rights
+   that the applicable original copyright holders did not grant.
+
+3. Ace2 libraries
+   Embedded Ace2 libraries remain subject to their upstream licenses. The
+   official WowAce project identifies Ace2 as LGPL v2.1, with AceOO-2.0 under
+   MIT. See THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md and LICENSES/.
+
+4. Visual assets, trademarks, station names, and streams
+   These remain subject to their respective rights holders. Inclusion of a
+   station name or URL is for identification and interoperability only and does
+   not imply affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement.
