I won't pay for the service either. I can find all the music I want on FM or

offspring of radio that has been hyped too much. But from many people who
have the service, they say they'll never go back to "old style FM" again.

I surely won't pay $13 or $15 a month for it. If it was like $3 a month, I'd
try it.

You are indeed ''Lucky'' if you can get clean FM stereo where you
live. I cannot. Like millions of people in the Western part of the
USA, mountains and multipath destroy the FM stereo at my house.

Is this the 11th Commandment, or what:

''Radio waves were meant to be free for listeners with commercials

The first commercial stations were signed on so stores could sell
radios. Very similar to the satellite radio business model.

Here's the deal: you pay for ****ty radio every time you buy a Coke.
Quit buying Cokes and listen to better radio.
