Again, not to mention the constant talking on most stations these days...we're not just talking about commercials.

And again, 30% Canadian content mandated by the CRTC. No such thing on the stations I listen to daily on satellite. I am not forced to hear it. I hear better music overall IMO.

Subjectively, I'm sure you do.

Go scream it from the hilltops if it makes you feel better about your purchase. I'm glad you like what you spent your money on, super cool. Everything you mention is strictly subjective. Something with objective qualities is not arguable, it just is or isn't.

I can find almost anything you find on Satellite on terrestrial radio. Do I find whole stations dedicated to it? No, but I also don't pay for it. But hey, if Satellite is subjectively better to you because you can listen to nothing but Bruce Springsteen for 12 straight hours, then let that freak flag fly.

It's not better. You just like it better. Good for you. Even I enjoy listening to the radio in my wife's car better than my radio, but I understand objective value vs. subjective value.
