reasons why a sat tv company might want xmsr...
For the same reasons sirius wants it to limit potential compition for it's main product... Reducing costs perhaps by combining satellites and other systems.. In at least one case it free's up bandwidth (the sirius deal free's up bandwidth because some of the channels are on both systems).. Keeps sirius from using the additional bandwidth (perhaps in combination with newer tek later on) from moving into the satilite t.v. space in a serious way. Right now sirius offers three t.v. channels only. makes it easier to cross sell sat t.v. to car manufactures. Right now the institution ownership of xmsr is listed as 97%. This tends to indicate that the price will be higher in the future.. (It's a good sign that is much better than a stock rising on hype alone)
