I've considered putting a XM radio in my Ford Explorer.  I've gotten to
the point I'm so sick of Nashville FM Radio!  The only decent FM in this
market for the demo (age group) I'm in is WJCK-FM (our Nashville
JACK-FM).  I love it!
NO STUPID JOCKS, just an Ipod sound with liners and spots! They were
smart to dump Coyote McCloud!

COMMISSION PROPOSES RULES FOR
NEW BROADCASTING SATELLITE SERVICE  
Sooner or later, it will occur to all of the folks that think people
have  
bottomless pockets when it comes to disposable income that there is a
limit. The 
 question is, will this service
have to have terrestrial repeaters placed anywhere there are buildings
the  
way the current satellite vendors do? Try explaining that to someone
that has  
satellite. "It's a repeater, no it's from the satellite!" 
 
If satellite was really satellite it would have been a failure in the
major  
cities from the start. Try getting a satellite uplink out of Manhattan
from 
an SNV. 
 
I recall having this conversation with one of he guys building Sirius
when  I 
was across the street at NBC. How will you customers be able to hear
your  
service if they can't see the spacecraft? The answer was we will buffer
it. Wow  
a three hour buffer! 
 
The goal is to get everything that is free OTA, off-the-air, so that
there  
aren't any options BUT pay services.
