4/7     Anyone have XM radio? Good? Bad?
        \_ wait until XM buys Sirius or vice versa.
        \_ why pay money to hear bad songs on the radio when you can
           get it for free?
        \_ Why not spend money on a Mp3 cd player, burn all your songs
           onto a CD instead?
        \_ XM Radio: product still looking for a need.
           \_ but Fortune magazine got paid enough to say that it's
              the product of the year!
              \_ Maybe but not any year I've lived in so far.

8/9     I wonder why they don't make a walkman thing for XM Radio, these
        things looks tiny and if I can take it everywhere I might justify
        the price of the monthly subscription. Also, why none of it has
        digital output?
        \_ You'll never fool us you lousy pirate!  We know that if you can

1/25    I often see cars on the street now with these tiny little fins
        sticking out the roof near the rear window. What is that? Some
        sort of GPS or XM receiver?
        \_ yes, sirius or some satellite radio.
        \_ They're receiving signal from Mars base.  -John

1/2     Have the musical programming merits of XM vs. Sirius been
        debated on the motd recently? If so, would someone be kind
        enough to summarize? Otherwise, your humble opinions would
        be much appreciated. Most reviews of satellite radio programming
        I'd googled had been limited to technical interest sites and the
        talk boards of XM/Sirius loyalists (who often troll each others'

        1.5 pages of the kind of positive advertising money can't buy.
        So, does XM programming really represent a rebirth
        of the radio DJ? is Sirius not that far removed from Clear
        Channel-controlled FM radio? --elizp
                \_ I think this varies from channel to channel. I can attest
                        to the much higher program quality for a few XM
