Sirius in Negotiations With Apple

An anonymous reader writes "Sirius Satellite Radio Chief Executive Mel Karmazin announced that his company is in talks with Apple about bringing satellite radio to the iPod. Karmazin met with Steve Jobs Monday and he says the technology is the easy part. The hard part is negotiating just how they will split the profit from equipment and monthly subscriptions." We've covered this before, but now it seems they are getting "more Sirius," or something.

  1. Sounds like a great idea to me. by mcc · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I am not really so interested in a personal MP3 player. I think I must be the only person in my market demographic who is not.

    But... a combination portable hard drive and satellite radio player? That sounds much more interesting. Include some kind of PVR-like ability to record satellite radio shows to iPod and dump them into iTunes later, and holy crap, I'm there.
