I'm listening to the hard core real jazz station on XM at the moment,
and you know what it is playing: Queen Latifa. Basically, I have had
this service for like three months at home; thankfully my commute is
short, and I don't need it in the car. I am shocked at how mainstream
the channel choces a There are like six to eight channels in
country, rock, pop, rap, talk. But only three in Jazz and only one
plays real jazz and then only about half the time. The rest is Kenny G
pap or worse --like Muzak. Way heavy on vocals, too. Classical? ONE
STATION! The other two are more like light opera and pop classical. I'm
very disappointed and can only dram of the day I can get Internet radio
in the car and some real choices. Satellite may be better than
broadcast, but it still sucks. $10 a month? Sorry, I'd rather buy a new
CD each month.

100% agree on the classical. Sirius used to have a chamber music
station but now it's classical pops. Sirius does a better job with jazz
than XM, IMHO, provably not worth changing systems though.
