Do you
(or anyone) have any idea what kind of satellite service would bring me
all
those international broadcasters that I seem to remember claim satellite
presence?

WorldSpace satellite radio has more international broadcaster channels, but
it does not cover the USA and could probably never get a license to do so.
Oddly, WorldSpace is headquartered in Washington, DC, and at least some of
their roughly 10 proprietary music channels originate from Washington. They
have a web site.

Most of WorldSpace is free to the listener.

I recently read that they are in the process of establishing at least a few
subscription channels aimed at US & British expatriates scattered around
their coverage areas in Africa and Asia.
