I bought a new KIA Soul in May with factory-installed Sirius radio. My free
subscription will soon end. I am investigating renewal.
Readers who enjoy listening to SW radio for news and cultural programming in
the USA and Canada should be interested in something I learned today about the
Sirius satellite radio service. My inquiry was prompted by a new practice of
passing music copyright royalty fees on to the subscribers. I have lots of
ways to hear music I choose without paying a monthly copyright fee. So I asked
Sirius if I could get just the news and talk channels for a discounted price.
Surprise, they said yes. $9.95 per month will get you BBC World Service, CBC
Radio One, World Radio Network, two channels of NPR talk, Bloomberg Radio, and
the audio from all the US cable TV news channels plus some non-English
channels.
This radio also has a USB port which allows me to rip my CD collection to a
flash drive, plug it into the USB port and hear all the music I cared enough
about to purchase.
Goodbye copyright fees.
