Just a slight off topic note.  I also am a big fan of satellite radio, and 
have an XpressRC, which has a 60 minute buffer, very similar to Tivo.  I can 
back up into the 60 minute buffer and relisten to a song or two, or pause 
the feed, and then resume it.  Very handy if you're going through the 
mountains and reception sucks, you can just back up and listen to the 
previous 30 minutes, and then jump over the bit with poor reception after 
you've cleared the mountains.

The reason I bring it up though, it maintains the buffer, even if you change 
channels, so no worries about clearing the buffer.  The only annoying thing, 
similar to Tivo, it allows you to record up to 10 songs for later playback 
at will, but will only record them if you catch them live.  If the song has 
completed the stream, you can no longer save it, even thought it's still in 
the buffer.
