Sirius Confirms iPod Satellite Talks
An anonymous reader writes "Remember those iPod Satellite rumors last December? Mel Karmazin, the CEO of Sirius Satellite Radio, announced at the 2005 Media Summit that he had discussions with Steve Jobs about the possibility of putting Sirius' technology in future iPods. Steve's response? Not interested."
Steve Jobs, the Prince Charles of the tabloid computer industry.
Oh the irony of someone who doesn't understand irony.
M$ buys an anti-virus firm and decides NOT to integrate AV technology into Longhorn.
Now that would be news.
Mongrel News all the news that fits and froths
Is Steve gonna sue Sirius now? ;) (Hint: What happened to the last person who revealed Apple's short-term plans? OK, so this is more of a lack of one specific plan, but...)
Honey, I shrunk the Cygwin

Steve is not that serious about sirius.

No, I think you're wrong.
Stern's primary market is blue collar workers, not the young "hip" generation. The hip generation is just that, the hip generation. They won't have any hips left soon you see, because they shake them too much to that hip hop music. This is much like what happened with Elvis and his fans.
People wonder why there is so much hip replacement surgery going on these days. Personally, I'm considering starting SternWalkers and SternWheelchairs, since we all know that Howard Stern is the hip hop king of the hip generation.
If you believe that Apple's renaissance since 1998 has happened despite Jobs' decisions instead of because of them, I have some magic beans to sell you. And a rock that keeps away tigers.
No... it will cost you $10,000 to put music on your iPod. I saw that on a TV commercial. TV doesn't lie.

I think you've gone beyond Apple Zealot to become a MaCommunist. Look at the ideological tone of your statements!
Steve Jobs has again seen the correct path
in the long term I think it will be a boon to everyone to have a strong Apple Computer company
it makes sense that we support them by buying our portable music at iTunes rather than listening to radio. . . it benefits Apple in a way that mere words cannot
I hang my head in abject shame. I thought I was a great zealot, but you are orders of magnitude greater than I, comrade. You're obviously getting higher quality kool aid than I am. =)
It's not offtopic, dumbass. It's orthogonal.
