Reply #13: Would an Internet Radio Device be a better option? [View All]

As I have Dish Network at home, I know about the overall quality of XM/Sirius, though I never listen to them. I still prefer their "CD Channels" as there are no annoying DJs interrupting all the time. But when I'm not using the TV for music, I love stations like somafm and Pandora. Both are free, though Pandora does have commercials if you don't subscribe (somafm is a public station and only reminds listeners of that fact every now and then; there are no fundraiser telethons like on broadcast public radio.)

I've never owned an Internet radio, so I have no idea if this is a good option or not. Seems like the subscription costs for XM would be more than enough incentive to find something better ;)
