Sad news



This thing was ahead of it's time, ahead of the technology. And now it'll die a silent death. IMHO, it's the greatest thing on the internet since porn.

WOXY is going silent on September 15, provided someone doesn't come along with a huge pile of cash to keep them afloat. If you haven't listened to WOXY, (and obviously, many haven't) you better act fast. I think it is the best programming not on the air. Good programming to me is hearing music I've never heard before, by artists I've never heard of. Commercial radio doesn't have that. Commercial radio has Jack and Bob, the "we play anything [within a narrow range of shit you're already sick of]" twins... and way too much Bob Seger and Jimmy Buffett. Jimmy Buffett, the Most Sucksessful Has-Been in the Biz!

Ten years from now when we're all driving our flying cars and living in Jetson style housing districts, we'll be listening to our IP radios, fed by municipal wireless systems. I hope there will be a WOXY style of programming. Let's hope they rise from the dead before then.
