    Humm......I don't think the world will collapse if a terrorist attack happens and it can't be broadcast via the satellite emergence broadcast system. You must be against the merger!!! Reply

    Just to add a little more. Adelstein is quoting Marky's, Democratic Rep. from MA, 6 year freeze on pricing and 25 % Spectrum set aside. Along with a few other details not yet revealed, in addition to what is already in circulation. Reply

    oregonduck.....a little brief on the details, and as we all know the devil is definitely in the details Adelstein is spouting out for the "Yes" vote. Might as well take my first born too! Granted it sets a limit for the deal to get done and puts tremendous pressure on Tate to do the right thing in aligning herself with her Republican Members, but short of that, Adelstein's concessions should be a deal breaker for me as an investor.

    How does an alternative source make it automatically a monopoly?? Don't think AM radio in comparison to FM or SSB or Long Wave is a "legal" monoply by definition! Or TV or cable versus radio! Or the print press versus radio versus TV versus cable versus the Internet! Collectively, they are just alternative means of spreading the word = communications!!

    But at one time in our history we had pocket sized radios that only received FM radio or only received AM radio!! And nobody was raising this kind of interference!! Or maybe they were, but without the Internet, nobody knew, therefore nobody cared!!!

    Just goes to show how illogical bureaucrats are! And you can translate the word "illogical" into stupid! Because after all this BS, it really appears that satellite radio is as doomed as any other common broadcast medium is when compared to the Internet!!

    Ever herad the terms "technological immigrants" and "technological natives"?? Well that describes folks born before and after 1980! Just wish the "natives" would get a little more restless and by the power of their votes set the "immigrants" in FCC free!

    Are contact lenses a legal monoply when compared to conventional eyeglasses? And if so, what the hell is laser surgery??

    Then, please tell me what value the FCC adds for the tax dollars they suck down! We would all do well to take their budget and contribute it to the Defense Department!

    This whole tragedy reminds me of Shakespeare's play "Much to do about nothing"!!!

    Have a nice day!     Reply

    Can we get on with this already? Sirius should get out of this insane merger and go it alone now! They don't need XM's debt, they don't need the FCC, they need to hook up with the IPOD and every other devise out there in technology land, and they don't need to share the spectrum or anything else they own, and it would be nice to see Sirius and XM survive and wipe out regular radio. This way, the corrupt polititions get nothing. It would be a victory for Sirius and hopefully for XM to in the long run. As for the stock prices, they were higher years ago before the merger was announced, and with some help from other technologies, they will get back to those higher levels again. Reply

    JayThomas, you left out the $175 price tag to cancel the contract with their current provider to switch to AT&T. In my case, getting an iPhone would cost me $650.

    Reminds me of an Offspring song..."I'm not a trendy a$$#ole..."

    Sirius will be king!     Reply

    You forget, not everyone can afford the $299 entry price plus $120 per month for their precious iPhone. Radio is free, and alot of people still look to radio to become more familiar with new songs and to find something new. Sure, there's people out there that like their niche music, and it's great that the iPod (and satellite radio for that matter) gives them what they want. But 95% of americans don't fit in that category, they listen to radio every week. So, while you may not find something you like on the radio, remember, few people hold that same belief. Reply

    After the SIRI and XMSR merger is done, look for a strong partnership between Apple and ((XS)). That will be the final nail in terrestrial radio's coffin. Reply

    I pay for Sirius and I will continue to pay for Sirius. If it goes away, I will listen to my Pod. Terrestrial radio is just a few of the same songs over and over mixed in with a ton of commercials. I switched because I grew tired of hearing the same songs over and over for 20 years.

    And to all of you Howard bashers out there, change the channel and quit your whining! How do you know what he is all about if you don't listen? You sound like people who move next to an airport and complain about the noise.     Reply

I agree Pandoro and CBS streaming radio on my iPhone rocks!!!! If you don't know what I'm talking about then you better ask somebody!! Reply
