I am curious about how it works.
My main question is FM/AM radio stations broadcast the usual way.
But XM is satellite so I am wondering do they just take the FM/AM stations from all over the world and rebroadcast them via XM satellite so the whole world can get the FM/AM stations out side there range/state.
I would think the best way to do this is have everything on internet (internet radio ) then take the internet feeds and rebroadcast them via satellite.
I am wondering if this is what they are actually doing and if so then using a laptop in your car with an aux port / internet radio (maybe an inverter to power it for every ) you would beable to have free XM for life ... (not taking into account the 3g prices )
Or does XM satellite stations every contain something/broadcast something that is not available on the internet radio?
I believe mostly all things are on the internet already. But from a marketing point of view it would serve them well to have something that is only on XM
