You are being awfully quiet, Eduardo!


Satellite is less than 2% of all radio listening.


Getting scared, 'Eduardo'?


Not at all. since in car listening is only about 30% of all radio listening,
and nearly all satellite installs are in cars. the effect is minimal. In
fact, several recognized research companies have shown satellite users are
also above average consumers of terrestrial radio, also. In 7 years, we have
only gotten to 14 million installs, a significant percentage of which do not
renew (after getting it free for a year in a car, for example), compared to
estimates of 700 million or more AM FM receivers.


- Remember, every in car satellite radio has an AM FM radio, too.

Remember, every in Car Satellite Radio also has
a built-in "Free" Over-the-Air AM FM Radio, Too.

it is better to listen to 'free' over-the-air radio
