I love this part: "Now, for the first time, Jimmy Buffett
fans across America can hear the channel in their cars, on their

boats
and on the go by becoming SIRIUS subscribers."

Ever heard of wireless internet?


In a car or boat? No, as a matter of fact, I haven't.


Give it time. I know a guy who had a pentium 2 in his
car with a 120 GB hard drive filled with mp3s. Now,
you just have to buy 3 iPods.

Usable spectrum is getting very scarce. NIMBY limits antenna siting.
Hell, there are vast stretches of highway without any AM/FM radio
service.

So this is what you're telling yourself, eh? It must be damned hard to
justify writing that check out to Sirius every month. Wouldn't it make
more sense to just repair your antenna?

Really? Just do a google search on "smart phones" or something like
that. You'll find plenty.

Do you really listen to music on your "smart phone"? And, if you do,
how does that materially differ from having a Sirius radio subscription?

It gives me access to everything on the internet, not just the
commercial crapola that's available through Sirius.

Buffett is fine but a whole channel???

It's as stupid as an all Elvis channel!

Better than rap or hip-hop I'll admit but....
