I am a satellite radio owner since May, 2004. While I have Sirius, I find this discussion interesting as well. When I chose services, I never considered music choice. It was talk and sports that drove me. If XM had Baseball at the time, I might've gone their way, but the NFL plus National Public Radio made my choice for me. Howard was an added bonus.
Anyway, I digress. I am wondering if music will be a major player in deciding which service to go with in the future. With services like iTunes, Rhapsody, and others as well as my ability to select cuts from CDs I own, I have several mixed CDs that I burned myself and which serve as my music channel/stream. In the age of a la carte self-serve music, why be at the mercy of any radio station, satellite or terrestrial?
