i don't have xm or sirius radio anymore so i don't know where to find good music. any ideas?

in california 103.1 is an indie station

There's a bunch of them.

I prefer iTunes, Windows Media Player or AOL because they are big companies that are not going to clutter up your computer (well, with the possible exception of AOL). They are all free and all offer an astounding array of choices.

The following sites will have live broadcasts or allow you to set up a custom station to your taste (below are download sites for internet players with lots of stations):
