Re: mainstream radio
we pay for satellite radio because radio is filled with ads
advertisers will stop advertising where no one listens
we will end up PAYING for something that will eventually be filled with ads
the only thing that has changed is that we will end up paying for radio
i'll stick with free and filled with dj's and ads

Re: mainstream radio
I pay for satellite radio first because FM radio is just a wasteland of a short playlist with constant repeats. No ads simply comes in second.
I've had XM for months, and only heard the latest hit popular song maybe twice. It's good to get some decent variety, and I'm definately willing to pay for it.

Stern shook up the industry
Whether you like Howard or hate him, he has an enormous influence on the industry. If Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, or Don Imus left the airwave, it would not have a negative effect on the industry. Stern leaves and the largest radio corporation completely changes its business model and some radio stations (that carried Howard's show) went from #1 in their market to #20.

No Subject Given
There may be no commercials, but every time I listen to it in my son's car, I hear seemingly endless promos for XM, what's on channel 942, buy our new great radio, we're digital, blah, blah.
At times it sort of comes across like an NPR pledge drive.
