XM RADIO update...

XM Shift.

XM Satellite Radio will reshape its 100-channel lineup, adding channels for neo-soul, books & drama, old-time radio dramas, folk music, easy listening and other formats. Playboy Radio, XM's first premium channel at an additional $3, will be available in the Fall. XM ended the quarter reporting 136,718 subscribers and continued to show quarter-to-quarter subscriber growth, adding 60,476 subscribers, representing a 79% subscriber growth compared to the first quarter of 2002.

XM always sounded interesting to me. I don't know much about it but I'm thinking of trying it out sometime. Anyone here have it? Is it worth it?

from what ive heard, its worth it if you take long car trips, hate nonstop playback of the same 5 songs an hour, and if you enjoy a variety of music. only problem is that its a little steep ($299.99) and you have to pay monthly to get it (9.99 a month) other than that, its supposingly a great little tool for the car.
anybody know if there is a home version.

do a search for XM. We had a post a few weeks ago and I linked the SONY home unit. You can take it to your car too.
