[Swprograms] OT Siriusly getting more expensive
I bought a new KIA Soul in May with factory-installed Sirius radio. My free subscription will soon end. I am investigating renewal.
Readers who enjoy listening to SW radio for news and cultural programming in the USA and Canada should be interested in something I learned today about the Sirius satellite radio service. My inquiry was prompted by a new practice of passing music copyright royalty fees on to the subscribers. I have lots of ways to hear music I choose without paying a monthly copyright fee. So I asked Sirius if I could get just the news and talk channels for a discounted price.
Surprise, they said yes. $9.95 per month will get you BBC World Service, CBC Radio One, World Radio Network, two channels of NPR talk, Bloomberg Radio, and the audio from all the US cable TV news channels plus some non-English channels.
This radio also has a USB port which allows me to rip my CD collection to a flash drive, plug it into the USB port and hear all the music I cared enough about to purchase.
Goodbye copyright fees.
