Well, there is the question of how many people actually listen to satelite radio exclusively at home?
Considering that the satelite systems were designed around the receiver being mobile (i.e. a car), it probably isn't nearly as effective to have directional dishes. Not to mention that those dishes have their own problem (line-of-sight, affected by the weather). Also, due to their location, I'm not sure if it is practical.
Not to mention that this would only apply to XM, because Sirius's satelites are not geostationary.
I also don't see multiswitches being useful for most people, since right now, you pay per receiver.
Not saying that someone won't do it (there have been a few high end solutions which have come up at CES's in the past.), but the market is still pretty young, and the primary market is still for cars, or those who want portability.
