This is actually my primary complaint about XM Radio as well.  I enjoy
the number of stations it provides, but each music station is very
specific to a genre.  Too specific.  That's great if you are in the
mood for a specific type of music, but I miss the variety of actual
human radio programming and not just some giant robot in the sky
playing approved playlists of songs that fit nicely into the box that
XM assigned to that station.

I like specific genres of music but I crave variety as well.
Terrestrial radio in Atlanta has been completely destroyed by
corporate radio companies and is no better.  Each station is totally
run on a formula and very rarely deviates from their playlist.

Munn might chime in here on this one too because I know he's a fan
too, but 94.9 in San Diego (streaming it on my laptop right now) is
great because of the variety it plays.  One of the few stations left
that plays a wide range of music I think.
