I really enjoy my Sirius Satellite Radio.

I have one I can remove from my car and put into a base in my house.  Because my job requires me to be in my car, mostly alone, for five hours, I listen to it more in my car.

I also listen online--like right now.

Believe me when I say that when you have five hours a night to work in a car, you figure out pretty fast what's available to listen to on the radio.  I immediately latched onto The Howard Stern Show.  Some bits are hits and some are misses, but the main people on the show are all excellent storytellers.  My favorite part of that show is when they spend an hour just chatting about what happened over the weekend or during last night's dinner.

Howard was the main reason I switched to Sirius.  Some other ones:

Sports.  Sirius has all the main team sports--NFL, NBA, NHL--except baseball, which is XM.  Of those, I only really do NFL, but hey, it's cool that the others are available.  NASCAR just switched over and is now only on Sirius.  They're even putting mikes on the radio signals for the top drivers, so during the race NASCAR fans can hear what the drivers and their pits are saying to each other.  Pretty cool idea.  Almost makes me wish I was a NASCAR fan.

Music.  Tons of channels.  Sirius music channels are no-commercials.  XM recently added some commercials to their music channels (ouch).  How cool is it to be able to drive from, say, Portland to Seattle and never have to change the channel if you like the music channel you're listening to?  Sirius just stole the official Frank Sinatra channel from XM, and will have shows featuring Nancy Sinatra among others.

Kids.  Howard is for when my son's not in the car.  But not all entertainment has to be kid-friendly.  When he is, there are channels for him, including Radio Disney and his favorite, Kids' Stuff.

Comedy.  Laugh Break is the family-friendly one.  Raw Dog is the R-rated one, and far superior in my opinion.  Also good:  Blue Collar Radio, which I would rate PG-13, and features "blue-collar" comedians.  In other words, you'll hear Jeff Foxworthy on there, but not Dennis Miller.  Jamie Foxx is adding a channel which will be partly comedy and partly talk/entertainment, which could be very cool.

Talk.  Business--CNBC and Bloomberg.  News--CNN, Fox, NPR.  Niche entertainment--Martha Stewart, Cosmo, OutQ, Shady 45, Playboy, Maxim, and more.  Wow.  There's even a "Sirius Stars" channel with shows by various names, which should be checked out by all subscribers for favorites, since it has everything from Richard Simmons talking fitness to Dee Snyder talking about the horror genre.

Sirius is like broadband internet.  Once you have it, you just don't want to go back to the old-fashioned kind.

Check it out.
