As a mode of transmission, satellite radio seems better than internet radio, because 1. Satellite radio already reaches cars, homes, and people on the street, whereas internet radio is, for all practical purposes, only at home and work. 2. Internet radio requires the user buy a computer (high upfront expense and maintenance, and a tremendous learning curve and source of headaches) and have an internet account (relatively high ongoing expense), unlike with satellite radio. I have both. If I could have only one or the other, I'd pick internet radio (for its enormous content), but if the same content were on both, I'd pick satellite radio. Only if satellite radio greatly expands it's content does it have a chance to succeed. Both XM and Sirius seem, at first glance, to have a lot of content, but, even within each company, there's a lot of redundancy. -- NauticusLX ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NauticusLX's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8981 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49806 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/squeezenetwork
