Radio Is Doomed - Tear Down the Broadcast Towers

Pandora won't last as a free or commercial free entitiy for you to have access to.

You'll either have to pay for it or listen to comnmercials. Not bad if it's a radio station you like I guess.

Watch for a merged SAT RAD to offer all of this. Access to down loads) indeed, using free downloads to enhance certain subscription tiers; and also allowing for pandora type access on certain channels that users set for themselves.

In addition you'll get all the sat radio tier you subscribe to. You'll get a constant signal - nationwide. And it will scale to different hardware and platforms.

That is the niche you want to be in.
