Just what I thought. Aren't optical discs fragile enough? Instead of making discs with higher and higher capacity or thinner profile, why doesn't anyone make a DVD that isn't rendered useless when my niece gets a scratch on it?
This is also common practice on modern industrial cranes. I had a conversation recently with a guy who operates a crane and cooks out for lunch every day on a platform he rigged up to the muffler.
Apparently egg-cooking time is becoming a common metric by which we rate our computer hardware these days. I recall a similar article not too long ago. A quick search popped up This Link.
If you get the Home Kit, the XM hardware comes with the cables and everything you need to send the audio signal directly to your home stereo. From there, there is nothing stopping you from turning on your tape recorder (or your computer, with audio recording software).

I guess I dont understand why you need an intermediary module to plug it into your PC's audio input when it already has "audio out".

Yes, brilliant. Every time someone plays the Powerball it makes perfect sense to move to Canada just in case they won. Makes sense to me.
