In this case I think its for the better.  XM has better technology, they
both have tons of programming that is duplicated between the two and costs $
to produce, and have content that forces people to currently choose one or
the other (NFL on sirius, MLB on XM, etc).  This is the first step in making
the satellite radio marketplace MUCH better off (and profitable for
shareholders).
