GSlusher, you are correct. I Apologize for not clarifying. The premium sound quality comes from the factory installed radio versions. You are right about the retail add on units sounding no better than FM

Wireless radio component specifications contained within beta distributions of iPhone 3.0 firmware reveal support for a new chip enabling low power 802.11n that's bound for Apple's third-generation iPod touch. It's therefore also likely to be included with new iPhone models.

Why Did Adelstein Reverse His Position on the SIRI-XM Merger? [View article]
Dr. Remulac, my "diversity in programing" in relation to ala carte pricing comment was based on the option a customer would have to create their own basket of channels, thereby making them unique and diverse in comparison to others. If this was not the context in which he intended his statement to be interpreted, then he should have clarified. If he was referring to the diversity that would be created by minority channels, 8% of the spectrum would substantially accommodate that. 25% is exorbitant and would severely restrict content growth. But again, where is the clarification? And where is your thought out defense? Until there is an intelligent thought outline to debate with, heated comments are all that I think are worthy to publish.

Dr. Remulac, you are correct, I do not have tangible proof of some of the accusations I write about. They are written from a perspective only. When I "Translated" the comments, I was playing on the fact that he did not offer any elaboration about each point of his watered down politically crafted statement. But truthfully, I would like to read your own opinion concerning the actions (or lack thereof) of the FCC in this 18 month process. You seem to be very opinionated in your statement without any substance behind your defense of the FCC.

Bio Investor, "Factual Documented Information" as released by the media is just that. I am giving you information based on 15 years of working inside these companies. Take from it what you do or do not wish to believe. In any case, I applaud your convictions.
I apologize for the lack of clarification and perceived contradiction. Yes, back in the early days the likes of Toyota were superior in quality, hence the comment about transmission issues. This is not the case now.
Maybe I wasn't clear in the article about a certain point. I believe that Internet radio will be king but I also believe that Sirius will be a part of that model along with the satellite radio, providing the best of both worlds. I do not think for a minute the company will go away. Sirius is a pioneer for next generation radio but it isn't the only stop on the way. It will have to grow and change with the landscape because Internet radio will be a dominant force very, very soon. There is no avoiding the evolution of technology to give the masses more for less. But you are correct. Currently Sat radio is where it's at. I am heavily invested as well and have been since Sirius came out of bankruptcy a few years ago. Believe me I am not trying to put it down, I want to see it succeed as much as anyone who believes in an idea that will change the world. But I cannot let money cloud reason and logic about the future of this technology. That would be irresponsible. I will be invested in this company as long as they are responsible and do not become complacent. But what the hell, in 5 years it may be called Google/Sirius :-)
All very legitimate points and questions. As I said, this is only a prediction based on the progression I have seen in the audio world over the last 10 years. I too still enjoy terrestrial radio but I just don't see it surviving the availability of Sat and internet streaming, especially, as cos1000 states, Cell phones being a good source of streaming content. A very good point about what the business model will be, who will subsidize etc. Of course none of us knows the answer but what I do believe is that when you are talking about a potential audience of billions, someone will figure it out. "WOW-WTF" , Pandora was actually what I was referring to in my article, nice job. "Plowboy", as far as reaching rural areas and cross country coverage, I think that will all be satellite internet based (coinicidence right?). Right now you can get a satellite internet card for your laptop for about 60.00 per month and have internet access anywhere you go. Sure there are areas with coverage dead spots but sooner or later it will all be blanketed by the satellites.
