1. XM
2. SkyFi2 , or if you can afford it, the MyFi by Delphi 3. The SkyFi is a detachable unit. You can attach it to your car radio via aux inputs, or FM transmitter. You can buy a boombox for the home/work, or you can buy a home kit that will attach to your home stereo. 4. Yes, if you have the boombox 5. Not sure. Also, XM is 9.99 a month, and additional units are 6.99. Keep in mind, a receiver=unit. Having a car kit and a boombox does not constitute as 2 units. ALSO, you must be near a window to use the boombox. Using it indoors with no windows around WILL NOT work, unless you get the MyFi which buffers 5 hours of music. XM is also available online, and costs 3.99 a month if you have an XM account. Thats all the info I have on XM. Sirius is 12.95 a month IIRC, has the NFL and Stern. XM has College football (ACC, Pac 10, big 10 so far). Sirius has college bball, i think. Either way, I don't think you will go wrong..hell, there was of a merger recently!

Oh man another thead.
1. What do you prefer?? Seems like a personal decision to me. I know I personally do not listen to NFL games on radio or listen to stern. I listen to more baseball on the radio but it wasn't a big pull for me to get XM. 2. Where you want to listen to it? XM has a new things called XM2Go where you can take it anywhere. You can carry it with you as you walk, it also comes with a car kit and a home kit for wherever you want to go. 3. Yup, plug in the headphones. 5. Nope, but I have not really looked at it. Satilite radio no matter what the company is very worth it IMO. |
