XM Radio Plans Online Music Service

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the joining-the-fray dept.

Grump writes "Diving into the already crowded online music business, XM Radio Online, will launch sometime in early October and operate commercial-free, just as its satellite programming does. XM will charge $7.99 per month for unlimited listening and offer a discount rate of $3.99 to subscribers of its existing radio services."

    A "discount" rate? Why is it not free?
    For sirius satellite radio, you can stream over the internet for free (if you already have a subscription).
    This seems ridiculous.
