Its run by the same commercial monkeys that have ruined our current FM/AM choices.  I hardly think they are going to be running all these stations commercial free and with much improved content.  Face it, its going to be more of the same on HD.<br><br>I'd rather take the huge variety of choices available on Sirius and XM instead of channel hopping trying to miss commercials on FM/AM stations.  And BTW, HD-AM has been canned for the time being due to massive bleedover to other channels.  So much for that half of the spectrum getting any improvements.<br><br>I do find it ironic many of the Autoblog bloggers seem to have a vendetta against Satellite Radio, even though it can now be found standard on many of these new cars we talk about.  Ford just announced a renewed partnership with Sirius, and put the penetration rate at 70% of all cars produced being equipped with it.  Thats a pretty big deal, and apparently many people are enjoying these 3 and 6 month free trials enough that they are dropping the bucks when it comes time to renew.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nighthawk]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/27/better-sound-in-volvos-hd-radio-standard-in-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/27/better-sound-in-volvos-hd-radio-standard-in-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have no problem with the variety and programming on the satellite services. My issue with them is the sound quality. If I'm paying a monthly fee for my music, I feel it should sound better than something equivalent to a 32kbps .mp3 file. The content is great - and you're right, HD radio is spotty, that's the point I was making in the post. <br><br>Sattelite is cool, don't get me wrong, but there's always room for variety, so being able to choose between standard AM/FM and HD content is cool. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dan Roth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:19PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
