Drove a car with XM Satellite Radio.

As part of my job, I got the opportunity to drive an STS equipped with XM Satellite Radio and all I can honestly say it's great for music lovers who like variety and are sick of the same songs over and over again with so many commercials. It has a hundred channels covering everything from a NASCAR station, Hindi music, 40's music, opera, unreleased artists, all kind of alternative, jazz, hard rock, rap. Plus it tells the artist and title of the song on the display. Sound quality is very close to that of a CD as it is all digital. Most stations are commercial free, some have up to 6 minutes per hour compared to like 20 something on a conventional FM station.
The reason I don't want to get it is that I'm afraid it will introduce to lots of new artists that I will like. Then I will go broke buying more CDs (and CD racks for that matter).
Sure I'm biased because I work for GM which owns part of the XM company, but check it out if you get a chance. I liked it so much, I bought some stock in XMSR.
