Their FAQ sucks though... so, I have to ask you..

1) Is it essentially the same as HD Radio?
2) Are there commercials?
3) Is there a subscription fee?
4) Is the range typical of traditional FM radio?

HD Radio = digital terrestrial tadio

It sounds like the same thing.

Quite possibly :)

Sattelite radio probably won't be that popular here, less landmass to contend with :)

1. What's your favourite radio station?
Triple J

2. How would you describe the format?
Australian and Eclectic

3. Do you think satellite radio will become commonplace, like subscribing to cable TV?
Um, Podcasts are the future! Already! And Cable radio is really sucky. Got that already too.

4. Have you thought about buying a satellite radio subscription?
It comes with the TV, and it sucks.

5. When is the last time you said goodbye?
I never say "Goodbye" in the formal sense unless I am saying farewell forever, in which case it was one of the numerous occassions I told people to piss off when I first got ill, but I only remember really telling my evil Aunt "Goodbye." Otherwise is "Talk soon, Love you." or something like that. Geez my English sucks doesn't it? Yes it does.

Au Revoir! (Which doesn't mean good bye! :P)
