Greetings WIXY Loyal Listeners,
Happy New Year, WIXY Friends! We hope your holidays went well and you're safe and healthy as we forge ahead into a new year filled with hope, challenges and life's unpredictable path. As many of you may have already known, we got thrown a curve ball at the end of 2021 and had to switch to a new commercial licensing provider with higher broadcasting rates than our prior, now defunct, provider. Nonetheless, we have made some hard adjustments and continue to navigate these waters with a goal of keeping the music going.
KEEPING THE NEEDLE ON THE RECORD
Avoid missing out on the music you love... please visit our website regularly for all the latest updates on how to keep on listening. Our listening links and helpful listening instructions will keep your 'needle on the record'. And, as usual, we will continue to post to Facebook, Twitter, and our news and support blogs as well (which can be subscribed to). The WIXY1260Online website is updated regularly and is your one-stop to all things WIXY1260Online - bookmark us today!
Of course, we did have to implement some changes as a result of the increased commercial rates. You'll notice more commercials which we are required to play by our licensing provider to avoid even higher fees. And, because of these changes, you may be wondering why your mobile apps or old ways of listening no longer work. We assure you our proprietary WIXY1260Online mobile apps will be back in the future, so don't delete them just yet. Also, services like TuneIn and your Home Assistants, like Alexa/Amazon Echo, will return to normal eventually. In the meantime, we have posted updated instructions on our Listen Page to tune in using a new Alexa Skill and Live365 Mobile app to tune in. (Mobile users can still listen using their phone's web browser and clicking the Play button at the bottom of our webpage.)
