desertblues Posted March 12, 2004 Report Share Posted March 12, 2004 I've only had experience with XM which was in my rental car last summer. They did have some very cool jazz stations including a 1940's one that played some great bebop and such. I have been considering getting XM or Sirius myself - wonder if one offers more jazz?

frank m Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 I was seriously considering it but I found live365 which has a lot more and costs a lot less. For driving purposes it doesn't work but then I have a cd player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:.impossible Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 The company that signs Howard Stern to their roster is the company that wins. Is anyone else following this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregK Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 The company that signs Howard Stern to their roster is the company that wins. Is anyone else following this? I'm following this with bemusement. Howard is such a big flip-flopping hypocrite, it's now wonder he's supporting Kerry now!!! Right after Sept 11 2001 and the war in Iraq he was so supportive of Bush and kept insisting to people who called in how good a job Bush was doing, how right the war was, etc. Now, just because the FCC is comign after him (unfairly), he suddenly changes his mind about Bush. He actually thinks Bush now stole the election (enough already about that- it's simply not true) and that he knew something about Sept 11 and is protecting Bin Laden's family!!! And he's insisting that the war was wrong!! All of this because the FCC is after him?? How does one bad judgement by Bush to send the FCC after Stern make him now wrong in everything else?? And that yes-man Robin just kisses his ass by agreeing with every single thing he says!!! I remember them both praising Bush just a year ago, now those very same things they loved about him they both insist are bad qualities. It's ridiculous. Nothing like consistency. Anyway, I heard he wants to be on both XM and Sirius. I would be interested in checking out whichever had more jazz (and less- no, wait, NONE if possible- rap) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got it a little backwards. Stern started to turn against Bush at least a week BEFORE the FCC started going after him. That's why he's spinning conspiracy theories--he thinks that ClearChannel, which is run by very good friends of the Bush family, is targeting him in retaliation for the shift in his views. Given the timing of the suspension, which even you admit is strange, it's not at all wacko to start speculating that the Bush crowd is utterly corrupt, and perhaps has been from the very beginning.

I think I'm accurate. He turned against Bush a month before the FCC went after him, but only because he was brainwashed by Franken's book. It's peculiar how he suddenly goes against everything he had said for the last 3 years. I've lost a lot of respect I had for him because he's a bigger flip-flopper than Kerry. Good riddance. Oh, and the "Bush crowd" is corrupt, like 99% of all politicians. Who would expect anything less? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christiern Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 Greg, if you are going to talk about big flip-floppers, there is none bigger than your Bush. I think it's laughable for anyone in the Bush camp to make accusations of flip-flopping. Anyone catch Rice on Meet the Press today? It was interesting to see her squirm as she tried to evade Russert's questions, and she is lying as much as ever these days, sound a lot like Professor Irwin Corey when she double-talks. These are the people you seem to embrace, Greg. I have always found Howard Stern to be a disgusting person, but top say that he was "brain-washed" by Franken's book is lame. Are you brainwashed by the scripts Bush reads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:.impossible Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 Can't mention "Stern" without consequence... sorry about the thread SS1. Either way, I plan to buy some satellite radio stock soon. Which provider is yet to be determined. A buddy of mine bought some Sirius stock not too long ago. I'd be interested to hear more about what you guys know about these companies. SS1, what made you choose Sirius? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
