Default Shortwave vs satellite radio?

I never thought id consider paying for radio.... but
lately I've been giving thought to getting rid of TV
completely and canceling cable bill.

Id replace it with satellite radio IF the following:

1. I can buy a device that acts as a portable receiver
and portable DVR to allow me to time shift. And I can
take this device ANYWHERE in the US and keep on my
person if wanted



MYFI does this. XM.



2. The programming had a LOT of talk shows and audio
stories and documentaries. Old time radio, etc



Oh yeah. XM.



In fact, both XM and Sirius are taking heat for their builtin
recorders.

What you wish to do is definitely available with satellite radio.

It's precisely how I use XM.
