I am almost spitting tacks after reading this.


So am I.

For decades J.C. Whitney, Radio Shack and other "electronic" vendors
have sold FM modulators. Now all of a sudden when satellite radio is
starting to pull listeners away from terrestrial broadcasting, does
anyone, let alone National Public Radio, actually care about it?!?

Sirius had admitted conspiring with suppliers to ignore FCC regulations,
which is blatantly anticompetitive and illegal.  I hope they get the
book thrown at them.
