4. It's about $10/month now
You just have to buy 15 months up front. Even without AA the $10 is well worth it.

5. Just a small FYI
Edited on Wed Apr-14-04 04:57 PM by Wheaty
Just a small FYI on the "full schedule."

Sirius will be carrying the FULL schedule. However, as with all Sirius talk streams, shows may be DELAYED due to a sports broadcast.

They will play the full show right after a game. It should only affect evening programs.

But all in all it's VERY GOOD news.

I'm a very happy Sirius Subscriber anyway.

Adding Air America is the icing on the cake. :bounce:

6. Why does sports have anything to do with it?
I don't understand the connection.

7. Sirius Satellite Broadcast live Sports
Edited on Wed Apr-14-04 05:18 PM by Wheaty
Sirius broadcast live sporting events. They have a contract with NFL, NBA and the NHL.

They broadcast all games live. At times Sirius doesn't have enough Sports Streams to broadcast all games.

They preempt some of the Weather Channels and Talk Streams in these times.

So you may tune in to The Majority Report one evening and get a Flyers Penguins game or something.

In those cases Sirius will play the preempted show in its entirety immediately after the game.
