As a general rule, in the area I live we get lousy radio reception. I decided to look into Satellite Radio today. I picked up a radio (Sirius Starmate 5) from Radio Shack for $60 and had it installed by a local garage for another $40. The monthly subscription cost for 130 radio channels is $15 and it took me no time to activate the satellite radio
There is a great cross section of music, sports and news. There are hits from the 40's, 50's, right up to today and four separate jazz stations. BBC world and CNN.
Most of you guys live in big cities and have access to lots of boring stations but for those who live in the boonies, like I do, I can highly recommend satellite radio.
