i do have to agree that siruis and xm are both much better alternatives than regular radio but why is it that you have to dump so much into the hardware and then pay a monthly fee on top of it? I can get satellite tv in my house with 4 receivers for nothing and in order to get GOOD sat radio its close to $200 just to start. If it was the similar to tv i would jump all over it, but the SQ is terrible unless its done in a manner other than FM Modulation and that will require much more $ to start.
