I held out as long as I could, but I'm afraid satellite radio might be unavoidable in the very near future.

The "only" radio I listen to is Air America, and unfortunately even that station has deteriorated from their FANTASTIC line-up from when they first started up, so now I only listen to Randi Rhodes, Thom Hartmann, and Rachel Maddow. I stream Mike Malloy over my computer via the Nova M network, because I NEED my Mike Malloy fix.
If I end up moving to a region of the United States of Jesus-land that doesn't have an Air America affiliate, I may need to get a satellite radio, but then again, I can always download the podcasts of the programs I want to hear and listen to on my MP3 player.
I do think that satellite radio will probably replace regular "free" radio, because regular radio SUCKS! Regular radio was gobbled up by the corporations and they decided they needed to "force-feed" what THEY wanted the public to hear whether the public actually wanted to hear it or not. I miss the "good old days" when radio stations were "independent" and we had shows and DJ's like depicted in WKRP's "Johnny Fever". :-)
