Satellite Radio Is Officially Here
dragons_flight writes: "XM Satellite Radio has officially launched, initially selling equipment only in the Dallas and San Diego markets, but going national by Nov. 15. A reciever for home or car costs ~$300 plus a $10/month subscription service. Many new cars will be pre-equipped with satellite-ready radios. XM provides 100 digital channels, a signicant number of which are commercial free. Sirius satellite radio says they are committed to launching be the end of the year." Any readers out there with the equipment for this have comments about it? ($10x12 + $300 makes $420 I'll be putting toward other things.)
Don't mention that trash ever again.
My only political goal is to see to it that no political party achieves its goals.
That's what I'm saying... I mean... I looked right away to see if they had techno and while I did see the 3 stations that they have... they sound kinda iffy to me. I'm looking for some minimal detroit and IDM stuff. Those on this board who say they don't like techno ... well they just haven't heard the right stuff... wich is understandable as the right stuff is not the easiest to find. I'm betting tho that there is a definate large demographic of Techno heads that have been looking forward to Satalite Radio as a way to get the steady constant fix of techno that is required.
