I'm quibbling with this a little bit. I burn CDs because I choose not to own an iPod. Effectively, they come to the same thing as far as actual use. I sacrifice a few pennies per disc and maybe 15 mnutes of effort making it in exchange for not buying $100 or so piece of equipment and using crappy formats. I have no intention of paying for a radio service because even good satellite staton still have a shorter playlist than I can put on one disc, and none of them are 100% full of music I really like anyway.
I'm just trying to explain that satellite radio is taking a product that doesn't really fit my needs and reducing its attractiveness further. I can't be the only one.
