It is pathetic to see how many people don't understand how good these services really are. I can't support HBO, Showtime, Starz, or any movie channel really that I have to pay for because i'm going to see the same things over and over again, but satellite radio is different. It is a way of showing the artists that you care. I am a sirius consumer, and I definitely have to say it transformed my ride from boring long trips that I hated, to enjoyable past times. I drive from Dallas to Houston, to Oklahoma, etc. all the time, and it only gets better with time. Some people don't understand however, that it's also like an art. Music is just like walking in to a museum and looking at artwork hanging on the walls. You don't just steal it. You did have to pay to get in. Same thing goes with a movie theater, you pay to watch a movie a single time, and it did absolutely nothing for you. Sure, you can get in free to all those places, but there's also the consequences. With satellite radio, you are paying to get everything you ask for, and I agree that it's the best thing out there, and can only be related to directv/dish/cable under one circumstance: it's the same exact form of entertainment, just designed for the car. If you can pay or cable, you can pay for satellite. you have to pay an install cost, or sign a contract with these people people, however, and with satellite radio, you don't. Long live Sirius and XM.
