    XM allows you to sample almost every single channel on their website......which is mostly the reason that I have XM in my car. Sirius may be great, but the no one will ever know it unless they get their marketing act together.

    "It's pointless listening to him because he'll say anything that will get him attention; doesn't matter whether it's true, false, what he honestly believes, something he vehemently disagrees with, or whatever. He's just empty speech filling airtime."

    Hmm... Sounds a lot like Bush and Kerry. And your last statement is true for them as well.

    "The amazing thing is that there are apparently millions of people who haven't worked it out yet"
