Great... I would like to hear all about it.

XM and Sirius "knew" that they had to get into new cars and they paid big
bucks to do it.
HD will NEVER SUCCEED without Detroit.

Car radios are so tightly integrated into a cars electronic systems that
aftermarket sets are a real challenge. That will always be a niche market.

XM and Sirius offer a one year free subscription with each receiver
delivered with a new car.
But how many people renew?  I don't know.
