We have a bunch of digital music cable channels that pose that problem for me. Title and artist are printed on the screen, but my wife shouldn't have to be my DJ every time I want to know what song is playing.
Most of the XM stations that I've listened to will at least back announce after every 4 or 5 songs, and the decade channeles have jocks that talk even more. Plus XM play lists are much much larger than those offered by commercial stations. I thought the antenna might have a problem working inside, but the signal strength is at its highest possible level with the antenna sitting against our living room window.
