HA! It's happened. All of you who said monopolies are bad are clearly wrong since the Department of Justice has spoken the truth. But is it a monopoly when we have so many choices for media available to us?
For those of you who already have a subscription to one or the other, how do you suppose this will affect the longevity of your current players?

There will be no competition in order to keep the prices affordable.
There might not be any direct competition, but there will be other choices, like digital radio or just stuff you get off the net and take with you on the road. I tried out Sirius a while back and loved everything except the sound quality. Wow was it bad and xm is worse. If these two can get together and improve that then I will get the service.
The truth is one of them would have declared bankruptcy and just gone away, leaving one weak player. Combined, they just might be able to offer a compelling alternative to Internet radio.
