The last week or so has been a free preview time for Sirius XM Radio.
What a treat...I favour the '60s tunes.
No seeking required.


The problem with Sirius and XM is that the sound quality sucks big-time. If you have the base stereo it may not be that noticeable, but with a better quality one the sound is very "flat" with almost no stereo image. It's highly compressed. I dropped my subscription.

MP3's sound far better. I can rip CD's to a high bit-rate MP3 and play them from a memory stick or transfer them to the "jukebox", which is nothing but a hard drive in the car used to store music. Then there's always HD FM, which is even better. The high quality iTunes songs are good, too.
