[BC] sats merger

[Robert Meuser]

Rich:

It is easy. First comes the multi system radio with heavy incentives to 
switch. Then come the thinning of both services which will hopefully 
eliminate those horribly programmed XM music channels which should also 
be about the time Abrams is shown the door if he has not left before 
then. Then comes a gradual technical alignment to a single system. That 
is, of course, if Mel hasn't morphed the whole thing into something 
totally different than what we see now.
