Satellite radio provider XM wants to put a satellite radio receiver into a wide variety of electronics, including alarm clocks and DVD players, but the technology is not ready yet. In fact, the current goal of satellite radio, a wearable device, is not even practical, since the receiver will not pick up a signal if the person doesn't remain stationary. However, experts predict that satellite radio reception will someday become standard in a wide variety of electronics. Although XM Satellite Radio Holdings and Sirius Satellite Radio are posting higher-than-expected earnings and signing up record numbers of new subscribers, their expenses remain far higher than revenues. Both companies reported spending more on marketing in the fourth quarter of 2004 than they brought in from subscriber fees.

Now, imagine a radio station that can broadcast its signal from more than 22,000 miles (35,000 km) away and then come through on your car radio with complete clarity. You could drive from Tacoma, Washington, to Washington, D.C., without ever having to change the radio station! Not only would you never hear static interfering with your favorite tunes, but the music would be interrupted by few or no commercials. XM Satellite Radio and Sirius Satellite Radio have both launched such a service. Satellite radio, also called digital radio, offers uninterrupted, near CD-quality music beamed to your radio from space. |
