so i just noticed today that woxy is back and well… so am i! here’s a brief timeline (thanks to The Enquirer):
October 1998: Oxford’s WOXY-FM (97.7) begins streaming audio on www.WOXY.com.
May 2004: WOXY.com ceases operation after Doug and Linda Balogh sell WOXY-FM for $5.6 million.
July 2004: WOXY.com returns as an Internet-only radio station from Longworth Hall.
February 2005: Named “Internet radio station of the year” by the international Plug Independent Music Awards.
February 2006: Asks listeners to pay $9.95 for audio stream access.
Sept. 15, 2006: Shuts down from lack of funds.
Oct. 10, 2006: Resumes broadcasting at 10:10 a.m.
ohh btw.. i was totally obsessed with woxy.com until they betrayed me by sticking a hook into my free-loving musical heart.. and then had the nerve to ask for ten bucks a month… grrr…(shit… i hung up posters for them… damn it!!)
anyways… here’s to woxy’s return and proof that music wants to be free!
hope they don’t screw up again!… and can’t wait for the return of the higher quality streams!
woot!
