Sure I can listen to the same station even while driving form coast to coast, but unless you are a trucker or in any other profession that requires you to be driving out of your "local" area on a day to day basis, the countless number of Internet radio stations PLUS actually having Internet in my car would outwin Satelite any day.

I have no idea how much it costs for a satelite phone but even though there are many dead spots (my house is one) I'll choose a cell phone over satelite phone mainly because of the cost and the NEED to be always connected isn't that important. (Just looked at one site and they charge $35/week, free incoming, $.75/min). It's a solution for someone that will be in an area that does not have cell coverage but not for someone in a metropolitan area that is mostly covered.

So, we've got satelite Internet and satelite phones that are merely solutions for people that either don't have the coverage or demand 100% coverage but don't mind the costs. Add satelite radio to the picture and you've got something that is limited in content and expensive compared to an Internet solution. ]]>Dec 4th 2007 8:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/04/copyright-royalty-board-sets-new-satellite-radio-license-fees/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/04/copyright-royalty-board-sets-new-satellite-radio-license-fees/Dec 4th 2007 7:53PM
