Also, its commercial breaks are shorter than those on terrestrial radio. XM boasts that 36 of its stations are entirely commercial-free, including half of the music stations.

Worried about what your kids are listening to? Parents will be happy to note that they have the option of calling XM and blocking access to the 6 stations that allow adult content. We found that the music stations offer good variety, but the talk channels are more repetitive since XM currently carries only a handful of them. Each category houses several stations-for example, the Classical category has stations for traditional classical, eclectic classical, opera, or classical pops. The 100 stations are grouped into 15 categories, including Country, Rock, Urban, Jazz & Blues, Latin, News, and Comedy. So the hardware is less than ideal, but how about the stations? In our testing, we found the content to be mostly excellent. XM representatives wouldn't disclose the bit rate of the channels, but subjectively, XM stations sound stronger and clearer than their FM counterparts. Even with southern exposure, the signal occasionally cuts out for a second but not often enough to ruin the listening experience. One warning: Without a southern-facing window for the antenna, you won't get any reception. Even with the remote and the five presets, you'll need to scroll through each item on the list. Another gripe: The bundled remote doesn't have number keys. You won't be able to change again until that channel has finished loading. Station scrolling must be done quickly-hesitate for too long, and the current station will take two or three seconds to load. You use it to scroll through stations, station categories, or controller settings. The problem lies in the fact that the jog dial controls too many functions. Unfortunately, there's no easy way to flip between stations you'll need to use the multifunction jog dial on top of the box to get to any station that's not a preset. We just wish that the hardware were a little more impressive for the price. Most XM devices are for use within a car, but the Sony DRN-XM01C delivers the service's 100 channels to home stereos across the land. XM Radio, the first digital satellite radio service, delivers the most variety and best sound quality currently available on broadcast radio-all for $10 per month. Internet radio satisfies some listeners' craving for variety but requires a PC.
