No one in canada has time to listen to the radio they wouldn't listen to it
if it were free. I give them 3 months of kidding themselves before they file
for bankruptcy up in canada. There is such a thing as a field study which
sirius has obviously never heard about. This will make the white stores in
america look like the biggest windfall ever. Remember field studies. If they
sell one subscription it's one more than they should.

Given the fact the U.S. is so large and lush in its ability to be a
self-sufficent broadcasting beacon w/ it's like, 4 million XM (U.S.)
subscribers, I don't see how XM Canada... which I see as the clear
winner much like Bell ExpressVu is to Star Choice, could get more than
675,000 and succeed for very long. Then again, years later and Bell
ExpressVu and even LOOK TV is still kickin'.

Given that most of the infrastructure is already in place, it's a
question of whether the 675,000 subscribers are worth the cost of
dealing with the legislative bullshit.

I don't know in what context you are speaking of, but on the US based
channels, there will be a barely percievable, if any, increase of cancon. |

With no Howard Stern there is no reason to buy a Canadian Sirius radio.
Both XM and Sirius are struggling to make a profit in the US so good
luck in Canada. It is a better product then the crap that is on free
radio right now but unless they are charging less then $8 a month most
Canadians that are cheap would pass. |

If it only lasts a year, which I doubt, it will be one year of bliss.

Some of you negative nellies who piss on everything because, well, thats the
type of fuckturds you are, seem to forget that there are more people outside
Toronto and Ottawa.
There are millions and millions of people who live in places that do not
have access to the CN Tower, and can't pick up terrestial radio other than
maybe one or two FM stations that play songs none of us have ever heard of.
It's these same people who purchased ExpressVU and StarChoice systems to get
TV that wasn't available in their rural areas.
Now these same people will purchase satellite radio for their cars and home,
to listen to jazz, rock, classical and other music, NOT AVAILABLE OUTSIDE
TORONTO!! Get it??
Just once in your lives, take your head out of your ass and imagine how
someone else lives and thinks, and maybe you'll see that not only are there
other points of view, but that not everyone thinks in such a small and
limited scope.

See what i mean? Another ignorant fuckturd who lives in a nutshell telling
us what life is like...
Most of Sirius stations are no different than ExpressVu Galaxie stations,
pure music, no talking, no chatter, no dj's....get your facts straight
before opening mouth. If you had ever ventured beyond the porn channels to
see what else is there, you would have heard what specialty music channels
sound like.

Reply:
I don't know about you;when I am in a moving vehicle and I am driving,I
do not want to "interact" with the media and constantly have to take my
eyes off the road to search for a song,or push buttons or pop in a CD
into a player and take my eyes off of my driving.Same thing with cell
phones.
Satellite radio is great in the fact that you can set a channel before
driving and listen to a "play list" without fumbling around with the
equipment so much.And I have all my presets ready to go too.Some of you
MIGHT be great at multi-tasking while you are driving in heavy
traffic.Speaking for myself though,I would rather NOT be around you when
you do it though.
I almost got hit 2 weeks ago by some woman talking on a cell phone and
not paying attention.
CD "popping",MP3 playlist selection and tape
juggling are all part and parcel of the same thing.The SIMPLER the
better,operations wise. |

have you ever heard of "why listen to the same old shit over and over again
when I can hear a variety of everything and have someone else do the work"
why are you people so hostile and negative all the time....sheesh, reading
through all these posts, each time someone makes a comment, all you trolls
have to come out of the woodwork and start shitting on people...
