Contributed by Dudley_Shale, Posted by

Los Angeles, California-based Indie 103.1 has shutdown their FM broadcast, effective immediately. They will now continue exclusively on the web. The station explained:

Because of changes in the radio industry and the way radio audiences are measured, stations in this market are being forced to play too much Britney, Puffy and alternative music that is neither new nor cutting edge. Due to these challenges, Indie 103.1 was recently faced with only one option: to play the corporate radio game. We have decided not to play that game any longer. Rather than changing the sound, spirit and soul of what has made Indie 103.1 great Indie 103.1 will bid farewell to the terrestrial airwaves and take an alternative course.

If you're using iTunes, you can find the Indie 103 broadcast in the "Alternative" section of the Radio. You can also listen live on the web here.
