aSiTiC writes "Apparently, satellite radio is finally catching on. I'm an avid internet radio listener on stations such as KEXP, BBC 6Music and SomaFM. I am looking for a more portable alternative and I wonder if eventually my favorite MP3/RM/WMA internet stations will be ever be carried on satellite."

1. Recently I purchased an 04 Accord - Sure he bought a brand new Accord. /. readers actually graduated. They are either 5th year frehman, or they dropped out.
2. I have a girlfriend -/. readers don't have girlfriends.
3. at the University I graduated from last year - no
4. There's lots to chose from -- ESPN for Sports, CNN and Fox News for headlines, and E! -no self respecting nerd would listen to this stuff.
In short, I think this is a well discuised attempt at karma whoring, and should be treated as such.

3. BS, Computer Science, Virginia Tech, 5 and a half years

When you multiply 1.2 million * $10 / month * 12 months/year, you get $144 million in a year. For certain, it's more money than SCO brought in last year.
