So what is Sirius and XM?

Right now, sattelite radio only has a small fraction of the nationwide
influence that the networks used to have.

familiar with sattelite radio. So, how much nationwide advertising is
on sattelite radio?

Frank Dresser

For the pay services, none. Why would anyone pay for commercials?

They get something in addition to the same tired horse**** that people are
generally looking for on radio. Play the top 40 and their satisfied. The
difference between one station that plays the same thing over and over as
apposed to the next station that plays the same thing over and over is the
amount of extraneous BS you have to put up with.

As of 1 February, XM will have about 25 channels with commercials (all
N/T), Sirius will have a few over 30. Neither has commercials on the
music channels.

In most cases, the commercials that he is referring to are ones like those
embedded in the "Fox News" television audio feed that XM simply
rebroadcasts.

Are you some kind of Neanderthal?

Every time you buy a so-called ''brand-name'' product you are probably
giving more money for promotion than for the actual goop in the
package. Advertising makes you pay whether you use the medium or not.

This makes sense to you? You're happy to play along?
