NY Times: "Adam Curry will produce and be host of a four-hour program every weekday starting May 13 on Sirius Satellite Radio."
Argh! This satellite radio thing is really starting to get me frustrated. I will be getting a XM radio in the mail soon and I'm very excited about that. I can't wait to start listening to Sox games on WEEI, the way they are meant to be heard... BUT the fact this duopoloy of satellite radio companies are not only the service providers but the content providers means that each has it's own exclusive lineup of programming. Would people put up with this same sort of thing from satellite TV? ESPN only on DirecTV while HGTV was only on Dish Network and Discovery was on cable? In order to get all of the programming you would want, you would be required to get all of the systems.
Satellite radio apparently needs to get to a model more similar to cable networks where "independent" parties generate and sell the content to the services. At least then you could hound your radio provider to broadcast something. In this current model, there's no chance that you will ever get the other network's programming on your own radio.
