I hope it does not change much. Their music selections have been revelatory.
 
 I am listening right now.

Does this mean that they might start playing good music?
 
 Or the fact that a Dallas company bought them means more Old 97's?

They sold their terrestrial broadcasting station, but will still be broadcasting on the Internet.  It's a loss to Cincinnati, but WOXY will still exist for everybody else.

Assuming they get sponsors that is...it still sucks, more symbolism that the reality of Max Headroom will soon come to light.

But it was unclear from the front page that they might just keep broadcasting terrestially as well, or did you not think that?
 
 
 They played Old 97s rather a lot these past couple of weeks because they were touring. I guess Woxy did play some awful music, idiot.

The new owners will broadcast on the same wavelength, but will probably reformat the station.  I'm thinking Country or Big Eighties.

Perhaps they could combine the two and be the first radio station that plays Big Country, 24/7.
 
 I bet Bungle Bud would listen.

No Rhett, laughing at the mentally retarded is not nice. If you are not mentally retarded, perhaps you should consider not posting in such a way as to come across as having an IQ below 60.

Oh back to topic, if what you are saying is true GGW, the add Woxy just ran for their"corporate radio sucks T-shirts" is rather hilarious and prescient.

At least we can live our lives knowing we will never have Big Country on Bands Reunited.
