IMO why bother with satellite...do you really listen to the radio that much to pay for it? But dude its your car and your tastes.....its just my 2 cents.

Ive had xm for about a month now. Its great, but be warned, you really need some good speakers to get the good sound. Also its not 9.99 a month, they charge you quarterly and its 15.00 bux for activation, I get wierd looks and questions about the antenna, its not very attractive. All and all if you wanna pay 27 bux quarterly to listen to foxnews be my guest......

well if you knew much about satalite.. you would know its digital... and so are CDs... well so to speak... but yeah its CD quality and above. my friend has it in his car and its freaking great sound. dont know what it will sound like with like a stock system or anything... but yet it sounds good with aftermarket stuff.
its nice to have techno and stuff 24/7... just makes crusing nice... and you never have to change channels to get reception

<pet_peeve>
and by "techno" im sure you are referring to the specific genre of electronic music, called "techno", not classifying electronic music all as "techno" right? (the likes of richie hawtin...t1000...dylan drazen...frankie bones..adam x...heather heart.. </pet_peeve> Quote:

Go somewhere else bro 900 bux is a damn rip off if i do say so.
think of all the things you can do with that money. I would not even think about still doing it.

lol, sorry, didn't mean to come off so hard. Point was, I wouldn't spend $900 for a better radio. plus monthly fees blow. My advice is wait a few days so I can tell you how awesome my MP3 HU and SONY H.O.P. speakers are, then you decide

The antenna is not that bad if its on a truck but on a small car it will look down right shitty.
