Very sad

WOXY is calling it quits (more here), unless there's someone who can buy it or there's some other miracle.

I started listening to WOXY on FM when I lived in Cincinnati in 1998. The station kept its indie rock spirit alive by going online after its spot on the FM dial was sold. When money got tight, it found angel investors and started asking listeners to pay for memberships. But WOXY still let fans listen free (members got better quality sound) and never seemed to be anywhere close to getting as many paying subscribers as it wanted each month.

Pooh. I think I'm in denial
