Nobody's said a thing to make me think that money thrown down for anybody's satellite radio wouldn't be better spent on CDs and edgy little underground music 'zines.
I need John Peel back from the dead and put in charge of programming before radio, satellite or otherwise, is going to be any kind of big deal.
I spend a lot of money on music, most of it CDs from the artists or their smaller labels. I don't read zines because I used to be a rock critic and they make me something something.
I think satellite radio will be good for a couple-three more years. Right now it's like early cable TV when they didn't have so many commercials and they had a lot of range to their content.
I certainly understand about your aversion to the zines; the writing being shit for the most part. For me, it's one of the only ways I can keep more or less in the loop for new sounds. I've heard a lot of neat new things on from Yeti, and Badaboom Gramophone.
Yah, idunno. All this newfangled satellite stuff - bah.
