In GTA IV, Independence FM works in the same way as custom radio stations in previous games, whereby music is placed in a directory (My Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA IV\User Music) and can then be heard in-game. It is accessed in the same way as other radio stations, and simply appears when the player scrolls through.
