iPod to Podcast Sirius Satellite Radio Content?
Kelly McNeill writes "The last time Apple and Sirius met up to discuss the possibilities of integrating satellite radio into the iPod, Steve Jobs turned down the offer. However, new reports show that the two companies are talking again. Kelly McNeill submitted the following editorial to osOpinion/osViews, which suggests the partnership is not to integrate satellite into the iPod but rather to make Sirius's original content for the future version of iTunes that will sport new podcasting capabilities."
Doesn't have to be near the border. I know people several hundred miles north of the U.S. border in Manitoba who use Sirius. They bought it in the states. I assume they're using a credit card with an American billing address to pay for it. Or maybe not.
Because of the figure-eight flight path of the Sirius satellites, it should be theoretically possible to pick up the signal anywhere from the north pole down to Brazil. YMMV.
