Is XM/Sirius a threat to internet radio?

[Rick and Roll]

Everyone has different motivations. Personally, I would never buy an ipod, or otherwise ensure that the music I like is available anytime/anywhere I want it. It's just not that important to me. Doesn't matter that Sirius, or anyone else has prog. I can fill up my day with all kinds of things...and there's all kinds of things out there I don't even know about.

I don't have time to watch the History channel, Discovery, or a thousand other ways to fill up a day. There's already programming for all kinds of fun genres. XM with so-called "progressive" programming doesn't register with me.

There's a 3 hour fusion show that airs on commercial radio on Thursdays that's incredible. But I can only listen for 30-45 minutes...the point I'm making is that I wouldn't pay for anything I wouldn't get full use out of.

There will always be a niche for a community like ours, regardless of who else is out there.
