: It could be that the online stream doesn't have to travel through the on-air delay that most stations utilize in order to avoid FCC issues, thanks to Janet Jackson, Kevin Federline, et. al. and the fear that they endgendered to financially-squeezed broadcast operations. Some air delays are 30-seconds or more... Just a hunch.
Yes, very true
103.5's stream is up to a minute ahead of the actual broadcast
Delay, HD, and other things are likely a factor.
It's a Clear Channel thing
