DISQUS

OK, can you please tell me how the merger is a bad thing? More doesn't make it better for consumers in all cases. A monopoly - market share and pricing power. XM and Sirius have raised their prices a total of once, that's right, once since they have been operating. So please stop all this monopoly talkand how it's not good for the consumer stuff. I don't know about you, but I would love to get NFL coverage and College Football games on the same service, one service. Everyone who say's this is bad for the consumer, please edcuate me and others and give us specific examples. And not "soaring prices" because even without the promised price caps, which the FCC could easily impose to make that a non-issue, if the price got too expensive, I would just drop the service as it's not a necessity commodity. Please, why are wasting time on two radio companies when food and energy continue to soar year after year? Why don't somebody do something about $3.00/gal gas instead of worrying about audio entertainment. The NAB has no merit for it's case except that two satellite providers will be reduced to one, a monopoly. So what, the one would be a better product for consumers than the two. The NAB has 230 million listeners to Satellite radio's 14 million. They are the monopoly.
