You see...that's when you simply switch over to the FM band and check the traffic. I bet they have a solution for this though. The fact is, in the next 10 years, we will all have computers with GPS and sattelite displays in our vehicles. If you want to check out an area of traffic, you will simply log in to a sattelite image of the area that will appear on a computer screen in your vehicle. Or something like that. Think about it. If they can put sattelite radio in a vehicle, why can't they put sattelitle images in a vehicle. We will have sattelite internet access in our vehicles. You name it. It's sattelite. All sattelite. The end to all ends. Nothing will top it. Nothing. Everything will be done via sattelite. You can take all the cables these guys are laying and just figure on shredding them up into scrap copper in the next ten years. Short the cable companies in due time. They are going to become extinct dinosaurs. Sattelite is what will make guys like us the big money, because it is gonna go up, and just keep going up. Local access channels will be no problem. They just passed the rule for Sattelite TV companies to provide local access channels. The radio companies will have it too. No problem. No worries. Just pass the bill. Advertisers like Coca-cola, Pepsi, Hallmark, etc... are not local advertisers. They will pay to get access to millions of subscription listeners. Hey, you don't get CNBC without cable or sattelite do ya? Look at the advertisers on CNBC. Yes, Howard Stern would command some serious advertising dollars. I wonder if they will be able to have a Howard Stern show and a button in the radio so that you can lock kids out of that station, just like sattelite TV has. eh? You gotta have vision guys. Just like Ematter will revolutionixe the publishing industry, sattelite radio WILL revolutionize radio. Sattelite is clean, fast, and reliable. It makes cable look like garbage. Keep in mind, I am no tech guru. I don't even know what I am talking about. I just see things, that's all. I see you guys paying 9.95 per month for sattelite radio in your vehicles within 2 years.
