XM and Sirius satellite radio companies strike a merger deal
XM and Sirius satellite radio companies strike a merger deal – USATODAY.com
Probably not a huge deal to everyone who reads our blog, but this is a really big deal in the Radio/Automotive industry.  I’ve heard rumors about this for quite some time now, but I just never figured it would go through. Sean thinks is a smart move for XM, who has watched Sirius’ subscriber base grow since Howard Stern joined forces with them, plus Sirius is rumored to have streaming video on the way. It will be interesting to see what auto manufactures do since some of them have only used one brand (EG: Mazda uses Sirius) – or heck, it will be interesting to see how the two companies go forward with their technology and channel line-ups.
