Heads Up...Monthly Auto Sales Being Released Tomorrow

Edmunds.com Forecasts August Auto Sales
SANTA MONICA, Calif.--Aug. 29, 2006--

This month's new vehicle sales (including fleet sales) are expected to be 1.5 million units, a 1.3 percent increase from August 2005, according to Edmunds.com, the premier online resource for automotive information.
"While sales are essentially flat, there is a drastic difference in the types of vehicles consumers are buying," noted Jesse Toprak, Executive Director of Industry Analysis for Edmunds.com. "Large SUV sales are down approximately 14 percent compared with this time last year while compact car sales are up approximately 18 percent. This is especially significant for the industry since large SUVs typically transact at around $37,000 per vehicle while the transaction price for the typical compact car is about $17,000."
This August had 27 selling days, one more than last August did. When adjusted for this difference, sales are down about 2.5 percent from August 2005. (The chart below sets forth other unadjusted and adjusted comparisons.) link to full article: HERE

Howard Stern Labor Day Weekend Special

August 31, 2006

Well, the tapes are in the hands of Howard Stern, and his staff has been working feverishly on the production of a special Labor Day weekend show featuring the fan favorites from years of Howard Broadcasts.

The festivities start Friday, September 1, 2006 at 6:00PM (eastern time) and run through Moday, September 4, 2006.

These tapes are a feature that Howard Stern fans were not anticipating when they subscribed to Sirius. The old shows were off limits to both Howard Stern as well as CBS Radio. A settlement was reached, and the tapes became property of Howard Stern. Sirius paid out $2,000,000 to have the rights to the 23,000 hours of content for the duration of Howards contract. This should prove to be a content coup for Sirius, as ad reveune ramps up.

Sirius, in a press release today outlined the debut of this much anticipated content. Fans have been making their requests, and now Sirius and Howard are ready to deliver. What we have here is another example of the effect that Howard Stern has on media.

The material, culled from thousands of fan requests and drawn from their favorite moments from Howard's coveted canon of radio broadcasts, will be played unedited and censor-free, the way it was meant to be heard.

The all-request special begins Labor Day Weekend, airing Friday, September 1 at 3pm ET and will run through Monday, September 4 at 12 midnight ET on channel 100. SIRIUS channel 101 will carry a simultaneous West Coast broadcast.

Chosen from 23,000 hours of tape from the last two decades of Howard's radio career, these fan favorite moments will include unedited interviews with such memorable guests as Paul McCartney, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Donald Trump, Sen. Alfonse D'Amato, Sylvester Stallone and Sam Kinison.

Delphi Posts $534,000,000 Loss For July

August 31, 2006

The Associated Press reports that auto Parts supplier Delphi posted a loss of $534 million in July of this year. The loss shows an improvement over the loss of June which carried a lot of employee buyout packages.

Delphi, in bankruptcy provides satellite radios in the OEM channel, and carries its brand name on some XM Satellite Radio plug and play models including the popular Roady XT.

Article Excerpt:

Delphi posts $534 million loss for July

AUG. 31 11:48 A.M. ET

Auto-parts supplier Delphi Corp.'s net loss narrowed to $534 million in July from $1.86 billion in June.

In a monthly operating report filed with the court overseeing its bankruptcy case, Troy, Mich.-based Delphi said it posted a loss on operations of $505 million in July, compared with a loss of $1.85 billion for the previous month.

The bulk of the company's previous monthly loss came from a $1.56 billion charge due to reductions in future services resulting from retirements under Delphi's special attrition program.

Net sales for July declined to $894 million from the previous month's $1.6 billion....."

RadioShack Expands Rollout Of HD Radio


RadioShack is rolling out distribution of HD radio. Although this may be perceived as a threat to Sirius, I think it will actually drive consumers to chose satellite radio. HD receivers are $299 starting price, while Sirius is $49.99. As for the quality of content...well, that goes without saying!

RadioShack Expanding Rollout Of HD Digital Radio Receivers
(Realtimetraders.com 08/31 07:45:20)

RadioShack Corp. (RSH) on Thursday revealed it would be expanding its rollout of HD digital radio receivers to include approximately 250 of the nearly 350 RadioShack stores open in the greater New York metropolitan area. The company noted that the HD digital radio technology would allow local radio broadcasters to transmit a high-quality digital signal which can be received using a special HD digital radio receiver. The receiver is expected to offer crystal-clear, static-free reception and subscription-free local programming. The company is currently offering customers the desktop Boston Acoustics Recepter HD digital radio in stores and online for $299.99, with plans to offer additional models in the future.

Auto Makers Boosting Sales With 0% Financing

The Return of 0% Financing
Auto Makers Pile On DealsTo Clear Swollen Inventories;Some Hot Models Excluded

By JENNIFER SARANOW and GINA CHONAugust 31, 2006; Page D1, Wall Street Journal

Eager to lure buyers into showrooms this fall, car makers are laying on a host of deal sweeteners on top of 0% financing. Many of the incentives from auto makers including DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler Group, Volkswagen AG and Toyota Motor Corp. involve better financing deals to offset higher interest rates. Along with 0% financing offers, other new perks include: low rates for up to six years, additional cash bonuses on top of low rates and extending the deals to people with subpar credit.
Car companies first turned to 0% deals after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, when General Motors Corp. launched its "Keep America Rolling" campaign and most other auto makers followed suit. But as the promotion's appeal faded and interest rates headed higher, many auto makers looked for other incentives like lease deals and employee pricing. By last year this time, super-low financing deals were sparse, says Art Spinella, president of market researcher CNW Marketing Research Inc...read more HERE

USA Today Negative On Satellite Radio Stocks


I call this type of post "dodging bullets", ie, what the journalists and analysts are saying, so we know why the stocks might be up or down on a short term basis...

Sirius and XM Satellite Radio: My tune hasn't changed yet
Updated 8/31/2006 1:34 AM ET, USA Today, Ask Matt, by Matt Krantz

Q: I thought satellite radio would be a hit, so I bought shares of XM Satellite Radio (XMSR) and Sirius (SIRI). But I'm losing a ton of money. What happened?
A: When individual investors get overly enthusiastic about unproven, unprofitable small companies, there's usually an unhappy ending.
That's precisely what's happened to investors in satellite radio. After the dot-com bubble burst, investors looking for fast money scrambled into these stocks and were richly rewarded for a while. Hardly a day passed without readers asking me about the stocks.
But, as in almost every case when investors pile into young stocks, it's been ugly. This year, shares of XM Satellite are down 53% and Sirius shares are down 39%. I'm certain the investors who told me satellite radio will be the biggest thing since FM didn't expect to lose 60 cents of every dollar they invested at the start of the year...read more HERE

Why I Pay For Satellite Radio...

This incident would never happen at XM or Sirius!

Off-Color, Off-Air Minnesota DJ Chatter Accidentally Broadcast
August 30, 2006, www.fmqb.com

On Saturday night, an off-air conversation between KDWB/Minnesota DJ J.J. and a Clear Channel board operator back at the station was accidentally broadcast on sister Triple A station KTCZ (Cities 97). According to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, the DJ was telling a story to the board op, and used profanity in their conversation. An unknown technical glitch broadcast the KDWB DJ over the airwaves of KTCZ.
KTCZ PD Lauren MacLeash tells FMQB that "we are investigating a conversation that was broadcast over the air due to innocent error. The KDWB DJ had no idea he was on-the-air. No KTCZ staff was ever involved. It was an equipment error that caused the off-air KDWB conversation to accidentally air for 8 minutes under the music on Cities 97. The conversation that took place may have contained inappropriate language. Our station's and company’s policy regarding radio broadcast indecency is clear. Indecent broadcasts will not be tolerated. Our company participates in company-wide training on Federal indecency rules and has procedures that detail swift and specific actions be taken if laws are violated. Rest assured that this error will never happen again." link to article: here

Yahoo Music Gets Personal

August 30, 2006

Yohoo Music is getting personal, but are they going to get Sirius? A Sirus and Yahoo relationship is still speculation, and only time will tell if something comes to fruition. Meanwhile, in an interesting move that could well garner some attention, Yahoo Music is offering a personal touch to music downloads.

A recent article from Ad Age tells the story: (excerpt)

NEW YORK (Adage.com) -- Attention Breeze, Kimball and Zena -- Jessica Simpson is singing your song. Literally.

While the idea might be dismissed as a sales gimmick, Yahoo Music's promotion is indicative of the explosion of personalized media in the MySpace-YouTube era. In what might be termed a first in "addressable" music marketing, Ms. Simpson and her backup singers have sung 500 first names to be selected by fans buying her latest song "Public Affair."

Selling at $1.99, Ms. Simpson's "Custom Cuts" is the first of its kind for Yahoo's digital music download service. Fans can visit the Yahoo website and select their own names to be inserted into the download during the song's second verse. Personalized media While the idea might be dismissed as something of a sales gimmick, it is indicative of the explosion of personalized media in the MySpace-YouTube era. The venture is a partnership between Ms. Simpson's label, Epic Records, and Yahoo Music....."

Zune "More Bark Than Bite"


Microsoft's upcoming Zune appears to be more bark than bite
AmTech (via www.briefing.com)

AmTech notes they are frankly underwhelmed by the much-hyped Zune device. It appears that the Zune is essentially a repackaged Toshiba Gigabeat that has seen limited success. Also, like the Chocolate phone from LG and other vendors, the Zune includes a fake clickwheel that does not scroll nor is touch pressure sensitive making navigation difficult, particularly for users with large music, video, and photo libraries. The firm believes Zune will likely see some success due to MSFT's strong brand name and strong marketing effort, but it will be limited by its lack of differentiation vs. other Windows players (CREAF, SNDK, Sony, Toshiba, Samsung, iRiver, Archos, and others).

Analysts Weigh In On NPD

August 29, 2006

With the release of the NPD data, some analysts have already given opinions:

Stifel Nicholas (Kit Spring) Excerpts

"Sirius maintained its leading market share in July and overall retail sales
growth improved sequentially:

According to our proprietary analysis of retail sales data we purchase from NPD Techworld, total retail sales were up 3% in July. This pace represents a sequential improvement from 0% y/y growth in June- the first time this year that growth has improved month/month, despite FCC emissions standards issues that likely negatively impacted the availability of
certain XM and Sirius radios. The market-share split was 58%/42% SIRI/XMSR,
roughly in line with the share-split over the past 6 months. We view these
results positively but note that July is not the biggest month in terms of
retail sales in the 3Q, and in the past has represented about 30% of 3Q sales.
SIRI's retail pace improved significantly during the month: This was Sirius'
best month in terms of y/y growth since March......."


The Kit Spring analysys was pretty straight forward and based on the numbers.

Bank Of America (Jonathan Jacoby) Excerpts:

July NPD Data: Slow Retail Growth Continues for Sat Radio
July satellite radio sales data from NPD shows continued slow growth at retail.
Unit sales for the industry grew 2% YoY in July, slightly better than the flat
industry sales posted in June. Sirius' (SIRI, $4.06, Neutral, Target Price:
$4.00) share was 58%, down slightly from 61% in June.......

......XM's unit growth was down sharply YoY (29%), likely reflecting product
shortages. XM (XMSR, $12.75, Buy, Target Price: $19.00) briefly resumed
shipments of 'plug & play' radios (which account for ~70% of retail unit sales)
in late June, but was forced to stop shipping again in July as the modified
units still failed to pass FCC emission tests. XM received new radio IDs again
last week, and shipments should resume by the end of September. However, lack
of available product in certain areas likely will lead to lower market share
and YoY sales decline in 3Q......

Jacoby runs by the numbers, but also has some curious comments. He states that retail growth is slow, but the numbers clearly show that SDARS sales are up 26% year to date, and 3% in July. He does not really identify that Sirius is seeing very healthy growth, and XM is seeing negative numbers in this area.

Morgan Stanley (Benjamin Swinburne) Excerpts

Quick Comment: NPD data released this afternoon for July are broadly
consistent of our 3Q06E growth and share assumptions for both XMSR and SIRI.
Category sales grew 2.5% and SIRI reached a 58% market share advantage over
XMSR, both broadly in line with our estimates for 3Q06 (~ -1.5% decline YoY in
category retail gross adds and SIRI taking 57% share). July's near 45%
sequential decline from June primarily reflects the June impact of Father's
Day and graduation gifts, although the drop in July may have been exacerbated
by inventory disruptions from XMSR relating to FCC compliance issues on its FM
modulators. Both XM and SIRI appear to have put these issues broadly behind
them, and we do not expect any inventory disruption for the important 4Q06E
selling season.


What's New: July NPD results display SIRI's continued ~58% retail market share
advantage over XMSR, broadly in line with 2Q share of ~57%, but down slightly
from June's 60% advantage. According to the released data, SIRI retail sales
grew 52% from July '05 compared to -29% at XMSR. In comparison to June's -18%
YoY sales declines, XMSR's results continue to display a loss of momentum in
the retail channel. Despite difficult YoY category comparisons from XMSR, we
are somewhat encouraged by the 2.5% YoY total category growth seen in July
compared to roughly flat YoY growth in June.

Swinburne reported by the numbers, and outlined his opinions. He sees the sector growing at retail.

Another iTunes "Challenger"

Advert-powered 'iTunes killer' takes to the stage - The Register (65.63 -1.35)

From www.briefing.com, In Play, 11:12 am
As mentioned at 6:06, Vivendi's (V) Universal Music is backing a start-up that will allow customers to download songs free of charge... The Register reports a new legal music download service will be launched in December which will offer MP3s free at the point of delivery. New York-based Spiralfrog says its site will be fully funded by advertising. Research apparently revealed consumers were willing to suffer ads for products relevant to them in exchange for free tunes. The standard download charge at iTunes is currently at 0.79 or $0.99 per track. Whether Spiralfrog's entry will prompt a rethink at the dominant player remains to be seen, but industry watchers are already pondering the implications. Ovum analyst Michele Mackenzie said: "There is no mention of which audio codec or DRM solution will be used, although it is very likely that the record labels will insist on some DRM being in place. If it indeed becomes a major force, the rest of the "big four" record cos - Sony (SNE) BMG, Warner (WMG) and EMI - are sure to follow Universal's lead and clamber on board. And then Apple will really have something to think about.

CRT Capital Group Lowers Target On Sirius (With A Caveat *)


CRT Capital, the group that lowered their rating on XMSR on August 22, has done the same with Sirius.

Before reading the XM note, I had never heard of CRT, so I checked them out, and found that they have just four analysts (LINK), none with apparent expertise in media, or investment banking for that matter, so I am taking their comments with a grain of salt!

(*) : I just got a comment from a credible source that CRT Capital has a short position in Sirius stock. A conflict of interest, perhaps...?


Sirius Satellite Radio-SIRI reiterate Sell, target lowered@CRTC
(theflyonthewall.com 08/29 09:39:27)

The firm lowered its target to $3 from $4, as they believe the company's pricing poweris maximized at 15%.

Agere Earnings: Reading Between The Lines


GSI posted a summary of Agere (AGR) earnings yesterday (Link: Here).

At first blush, and from the headline, "Agere Systems Q2 Results: Lower Satellite Radio Shipments", it seems like the revenue decline was due to soft sales of satellite radio customers. However, reading between the lines, you may remember that last year, Sirius discontinued the use of certain Agere products and replaced them with STMicroelectronics chipsets. There are some analysts who even think that the initial technology lag in Sirius hardware was partially attibutable to Agere, and that switching to STM (who also supplies chipsets for XMSR) put Sirius and XM on equal footing. Bottom line, Agere's decline in sat rad chipset revenues seem to be company specific

Howard Makes Page Six With Elijah Blue Allman Interview



HILTON'S CD IS INSTANT TANKER
By PAULA FROELICH, August 29, 2006, NY Post

PARIS Hilton's career as a pop star is fizzling as quickly as one of her blink-and-you'll-miss-it relationships....

...Meanwhile, Hilton's reputation as a dirty girl put one of her former sex partners on edge after they'd been to bed together. Elijah Blue Allman, the hunky son of Cher and Gregg Allman, boasted to Howard Stern the other day that he had a fling with Hilton before she was famous - but he got nervous right afterward that he might have picked up a sexually transmitted disease from her. Allman says he was so worried, he raced downstairs and grabbed a household cleaning product to pour over his private parts and "disinfect" them. While Stern flipped over the tawdry tale, aired over his Sirius Satellite Radio raunchfest show, Hilton wasn't thrilled with the disclosure. "She's not happy about it," said a source, despite the fact Allman tried to lessen the low blow by noting she was a "sweet girl" nonetheless....read more: HERE

AOL Challenging iTunes, Bundles AOL & XM Radio



AOL unveils Web-based music store
By Reuters, Story last modified Mon Aug 28 22:29:23 PDT 2006

AOL on Tuesday unveiled a revamped music product with a Web-based store and subscription service offering audio and video streaming, programmed radio and downloads that can be transferred to compatible digital media players. The online division of Time Warner said AOL Music Now, part of its AOL Music service, is open to any online visitor and features more than 2.5 million songs and videos. AOL had, until recently, been a service available only to its Internet access subscribers. But this month its parent announced a change in strategy to open up AOL to more users with features such as free e-mail and a variety of Web services and content. It aims to drive revenue through lucrative online advertising dollars rather than Internet access fees.

"It's available to anyone to come to the service and search for songs," said Amit Shafrir, president of AOL Music Now. "We have a huge online presence and won't have to spend tens of millions of dollars in marketing to attract users." AOL said digital media on the service can play directly from a Web browser without the need to download a standalone software application, as with Apple Computer's popular iTunes service. It is also compatible with Microsoft's PlayforSure compatible portable devices. Users will pay $10 to $15 a month for full access to AOL Music Now. AOL Radio with XM Satellite Radio service is also available for $4.95 a month....read more: HERE

Bama Fan? Got Sirius?

August 29, 2006

With the opening game of the season sold out, and only available on a pay per view basis, what is a fan to do? As this article points out, Alabama football games can be heard on Sirius Satellite Radio.

Article Excerpts:

Stay Tuned, but Where?

By Mitch Dobbs Posted Aug 28, 2006

The University of Alabama football team's season opener is already sold out, and it will be televised on a pay-per-view basis only. Availability and price varies by area and service provider, and you should check with your satellite or cable provider for detailed information. Here’s what we know:

On DirecTV, you should be able to find the game on channel 797. DirecTV lists the price of the game at $29.95 on its web site. The number for pay-per-view ordering for DirecTV is (800) 531-5000.

Dish Network’s web site says the Bama-Hawaii game will be on channel 461.
People in Alabama and Hawaii may only order the game by cable, DirecTV and Dish. Outside of those states, they must subscribe to ESPN Game Plan to get the game (in addition to other anticipated Bama pay-per-view games).

Alabama’s games are on Sirius Satellite Radio. The Sirius site says the game will be on channel 147....."

XM VS. Sirius - The Debate Continues

August 29, 2006

In an article by Amanda Carpenter, she explains why she made the switch from XM to Sirius.

Her decision came after experiencing Sirius via Dish Network.

Article Excerpts:

XM Versus Sirius: Which Satellite Radio Should You Subscribe To?

By amanda carpenter Aug 28 2006 12:00PM

Are you tired of flipping through the radio trying to find tunes to jam to, but all you find are boring channels with a lot of chit-chat or ads? That was me a few months ago, until I subscribed to satellite radio. With hundreds of commercial-free music stations and specialty channels like live football coverage and talk shows, you will definitely want satellite radio in your car too!
You can even buy devices that will allow you to have satellite radio almost anywhere - in your boat, house, even on capable cell phones! So if you decide you want the satellite entertainment experience, you can choose between two services: either XM or Sirius.

I subscribed to XM awhile back for my car simply because I was more familiar with it. Then when we got Dish Network in our home, Sirius came along with it. I have to say, Sirius has won me over.

Out of its 170+ stations, I find myself only listening to 4 or 5 channels on XM. Sirius has many stations I switch between. XM has a bad habit of repeating songs. I may end up hearing one song five times in one day within a few hours period. With Sirius, that isn’t the case.

Furthermore, I do not like the way XM names its stations. For example, some XM station names are “Fred” and “KISS” and “Watercolor.” I have to guess what types of music they play. If I mention a radio station called “The Joint,” how long would it take you to figure out that I'm talking about a reggae station? Sirius clearly names it’s stations, such as “Reggae Nation” and “Rolling Stones Radio,” for instance.

Sirius satellite radio broadcasts a lot clearer than XM, especially in relation to the talk channels. People’s voices come across a lot smoother and can be easier understood than XM, which tends to be fuzzy. XM has another sound problem. It sometimes will fade out of my front left speakers and only play through on the passenger side speakers. You’d think something was wrong with my audio system, but when I switch off XM and local stations come in, the sound immediately comes back to my left speakers.

XM has a few more channels than Sirius, but don’t forget to consider the quality and content of their channels. It’s true that XM has 90+ music channels, 10+ sports channels, 20+ news and talk channels, along with a few traffic channels. However, what are those channels exactly......"

RF Monolithics Making Strides in Wireless

August 28, 2006

Satellite Standard Group follows more than Sirius and XM. We also like to look at companies that do business with Sirius and XM. RF Monolithics is one of those companies, and they have been making strides in several areas in recent months. Today they announced some major moves that should help buid their business model through both aquisition, and synergy. SSG compiled a profile piece on RF Monolithics HERE.

RF Monolithics, Inc. Announces Major Steps toward Becoming a Comprehensive Wireless Solutions LeaderMonday August 28, 7:30 am ET

To Acquire Module Leader Cirronet and CMMS Software Provider Caver-Morehead
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 28, 2006--

RF Monolithics, Inc. ("RFM" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:RFMI - News) today announced major steps toward becoming a comprehensive wireless solutions leader with the signing of definitive agreements for the acquisition of Cirronet Inc. ("Cirronet"), a wireless data communications and networking company, and Caver-Morehead Systems, Inc. ("Caver-Morehead"), which offers computerized maintenance management system ("CMMS") software. RFM will offer a comprehensive suite of hardware, protocols, software, and related services necessary to enable customers to readily implement and deploy value added applications and smart services in their operations.

The Cirronet acquisition is valued at up to approximately $24.0 million in cash and stock including approximately $4.8 million subject to the attainment of performance goals after closing. The Caver-Morehead acquisition is valued at approximately $4.0 million, all cash including up to $2.0 million subject to earn out. Both Cirronet and Caver-Morehead are privately-held. In the year ending December 31, 2005, Cirronet and Caver-Morehead had sales of $10.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively. RFM expects these two acquisitions to contribute from $14 million to $16 million of combined sales for RFM's fiscal year 2007 (which ends August 31, 2007).

David M. Kirk, President and CEO of RFM, said "Connection of all manner of machines and processes through the pervasive internet, frequently referred to as machine-to-machine networking, is a transformation of the pervasive internet. We believe the combination of RFM's proprietary low-power short range radio technology and Cirronet's products incorporating proprietary, Bluetooth® and ZigBee® technology plus Caver-Morehead's sophisticated asset management application software platform provide RFM a unique capability to provide customers end-to-end pervasive internet solutions. RFM will offer the broadest range of radios, modules, and protocols in the industry and, to our knowledge, no one else combines such a broad line of wireless offerings with a value added application and services platform."

Robert M. Gemmell, President and CEO of Cirronet, said, "The pervasive internet is moving beyond experimentation and now entering a phase of rapid adoption. The strategic vision alignment between RFM and Cirronet and fully complementary product lines positions us to take full advantage of this opportunity. Our shareholders believe this merger gives Cirronet access to the resources and distribution system necessary to continue its market leadership and position the combined companies as one of the dominant participants in the wireless devices segment of the pervasive internet market." Upon completion of the merger, Mr. Gemmell will become an executive of RFM.

William F. Caver, President of Caver-Morehead, commented, "The emergence of practical wireless sensor and control systems provides a unique opportunity for forward-thinking CMMS companies to expand, beyond their traditional machine maintenance focus, into the broader market for asset management. The field-proven maturity and stability of our software platform gives us a significant advantage over new entrants in the pervasive internet space. We believe that the addition of Cirronet's and RFM's wireless sensor network solutions and industrial market presence dramatically extends the utility and value of our platform in our traditional markets while opening it to entirely new markets." Upon completion of the merger, Mr. Caver will become President of Aleier, Inc., a RFM subsidiary, which will acquire substantially all of Caver-Morehead's assets.

Southwest Securities, Inc. acted as financial advisor to RFM and issued a fairness opinion in connection with the Cirronet acquisition.

Conference Call
RFM will host a conference call to discuss the transactions at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, August 29, 2006, and invites all those interested to participate either by phone or on the Web. Participants can access the call directly by dialing 1-866-752-1354 and using access code 4304888.

AOL Gets Dylan's XM Show


August 28, 2006

AOL Radio with XM is adding Dylan to the lineup. Dylan's show has been well received, and the additional exposure that XM gains by airing it on AOL may translate into additional subscribers.

AOL Radio Lands Bob Dylan's XM Show, 'Theme Time Radio Hour'

Last Update: 9:00 AM ET Aug 28, 2006

NEW YORK, Aug 28, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- AOL:

XM's World Premiere of Dylan's "Modern Times" CD to be broadcast
on AOL Radio on August 28

Fans can also preview Dylan's new "masterwork" on AOL Music's

Full CD Listening Party all week long

AOL Radio will begin carrying Bob Dylan's critically acclaimed weekly XM show "Theme Time Radio Hour" on Wednesday, August 30. In addition, Dylan fans can catch 18 "Theme Time" shows back-to-back as part of XM's weekend-long marathon, which will be simulcast on AOL Radio beginning Friday, September 1, at 6 p.m. ET. AOL will also simulcast XM's world premiere of Bob Dylan's heavily anticipated Modern Times today and tomorrow, and stream the album on demand all week as part of AOL Music's Full CD Listening Party.

Modern Times, which arrives in stores on August 29, has already been hailed as a "third straight masterwork" by Rolling Stone magazine, while famed music journalist Robert Christgau proclaimed it "Startling. (It} radiates the observant calm of old masters who have seen enough life to be ready for anything--Yeats, Matisse, Sonny Rollins."

"Dylan fans like me have long wondered what music moves and inspires the man, so to hear him playing DJ on the 'Theme Time Radio Hour' is as insightful as it is entertaining," said Erik Flannigan, GM/VP of AOL Music. "We're thrilled AOL Music will expand the audience for this truly one-of-a-kind program."

"Theme Time Radio Hour" debuted in May 2006 to popular and critical-acclaim on XM Satellite Radio with the Chicago Tribune calling the show "gutsy, muscular, musically encyclopedic...most of all, fun."

Sirius Music Partner

August 26, 2006

There has been a lot of speculation related to the "BUY BUTTON" partner of Sirius for the upcoming Stiletto.

What we know at this point is that the Stiletto is based on the ZING platform.

If you recall, SSG did an article titled What WIFI Means To Sirius relating to what WIFI and the ZING relationship meant to Sirius. As part of that article we posted a Zing marketing photo. That photo clearly shows Yahoo Music's logo.

Does this mean that Yahoo will be partnering with Sirius? It may, but there is something that is quite clear from the press releases so far. The Stilleto, which supports Microsoft's "PlaysForSure" should be able to work with just about any non-iTunes service out there (including XM's partner Napster, Real Rhapsody, and Yahoo! Music).

Rumors and speculation are sure to continue, but there are indeed some strong hints as to what this device can do and who Sirius is working with.

Official word from Sirius regarding this device and partners has not yet been released, but there are many who are eager to find out more.

For those interested in this device, the back-orders are stacking up quickly. TSS Radio is accepting e-mail reservations for the Stiletto. You can save your spot in line by visiting TSS Radio HERE

Interesting Article Regarding Mergers and Buyouts

August 26, 2006

With all the talk lately about mergers or buyouts with sirius and XM, this article caught our eye. Read the entire article and look back at the trading patterns. Look at the volume. Look at moves that seem bigger or more pronounced than they should with these equities. It is interesting to say the least.

Article Excerpt:

Suspect trading precedes many top U.S. mergers: NYT
Sat Aug 26, 2006 6:37pm ET

NEW YORK (Reuters) -


The securities of 41 percent of companies that received buyout bids in the last year showed abnormal and suspicious trading in the days and weeks before the deals became public, the New York Times reported in its Sunday edition, quoting a study of the nation's biggest mergers.
The study, conducted for the newspaper by Measuredmarkets Inc., an analytical research firm in Toronto, examined mergers with a value of $1 billion or more announced in the 12-month period ending in early July.


It analyzed the price, total shares traded and the number of individual trades in each stock during the weeks leading up to the announcement, and looked for large deviations from trading patterns going back as far as four years.


Of the 90 big mergers in the period, it found that shares of 37 target companies exhibited abnormal trading in the days and weeks before the deals were disclosed, and that for those who bought shares during the periods of unusual trading, quick gains of as much as 40 percent were possible.


Trading on inside information about an imminent merger is illegal.
INSIDER TRADING?


Measuredmarket founder Christopher Thomas, a former analyst and stockbroker, told the Times that the analysis led to the conclusion that the unusual activities most likely indicated insider trading......."

Robert Rubin Resigns From Ford Board, Clearing The Way For Investment Banking Activities

Director at Ford Steps Down
By MICHELINE MAYNARD, DEARBORN, Mich., Aug. 25, New York Times

Robert E. Rubin stepped down as a director of Ford Motor, clearing the way for his investment bank to play a more significant role as Ford makes major decisions about its restructuring.
Mr. Rubin, a director and chairman of the executive committee at Citigroup, said in a letter released Friday that he wanted to avoid any potential conflicts that could be raised by his presence on Ford’s board, which he joined six years ago.
It came as Ford’s chief executive, William Clay Ford Jr., is pondering a wide variety of steps that are aimed at reversing Ford’s losses, resizing the company and enabling it to withstand brutal industry competition.
Those steps could include finding buyers for luxury brands like Jaguar, Land Rover and Aston Martin. That task could fall to Citigroup as well as another financial adviser, Goldman Sachs, which like Citigroup has a longstanding association with Ford...read more: Here

Microsoft Zune Will Have "Social" Features, Confirms Toshiba As Manufacturer, No Word Yet On Satellite Radio



Microsoft's Zune aims to be social butterfly
By Ina Fried (CNET) Story last modified Fri Aug 25 16:07:14 PDT 2006

Microsoft's forthcoming Zune player is shooting to be the life of the party, allowing users to create mobile social networks and stream music to nearby friends or strangers, according to a government regulatory filing.
Zune owners can act as their own DJ, sending streaming music content to up to four other devices, according to documents filed with the Federal Communications Commission . With the device's wireless networking abilities turned on, people can send and receive photos, as well as "promotional copies of songs, albums and playlists," according to the filing, made public Thursday.
Hardware maker Toshiba, which is manufacturing the Zune device, was the company that filed the FCC documents. The documents refer to the device and service alternately as Zune and by two code names, Argo and Pyxis.
A Microsoft representative confirmed that the filing is legitimate and that Toshiba will manufacture the Zune device, but declined to offer additional details or comment on the information in the FCC filing.
"More details about Zune will be announced in the coming weeks," the representative said in an e-mail.
Microsoft confirmed last month that it was developing a device and music service to rival Apple Computer's iTunes/iPod combination. The company had said Zune would have built-in Wi-Fi abilities, but had not yet said what it planned to allow users to do with their wireless connection....read more: HERE

Merrill Lynch On XM FCC Compliance



August 25, 2006

Satellite Standard Group Keeps You Informed.

Laraine Mancini issued a report today relating to XM's gaining certification on some hardware.

Report Excerpt:

FCC grants 3 FM-modulator certificationsThe FCC has issued 3 new grants of authority for the Audiovox Xpress, DelphiRoadyXT, and the XM Sportscaster radios which all use FM modulators (1 unitstill not certified). While the FCC has 30 days to revoke the grants (like it opted to do with XM's previous grants), management is optimistic that the FCC iscomfortable with current test variability levels and feels that XM and the FCC haveworked closely to achieve the solution, making the FCC less likely to change its decision.

Following receipt of the certification, XMSR notified its manufacturers toresume radio production, which XM expects to be in adequate supply for theholiday shopping season. Inventory disruptions in 3Q, adequate 4Q supply While 3Q06 inventory disruptions from stalled radio production are likely to resultin the lowest quarter of net additions (MLe 313k) since 3Q03, we believe the certifications were received early enough to replenish inventory in a cost effective manner (without expedited shipping which would increase SAC) prior to the holiday shopping season.

We view this as a positive for both XMSR and SIRI as the removal of this overhang should result in higher growth to alleviate investor fears regarding long-term subscriber estimates. For XMSR specifically, the company should benefit from renewed focus on real business drivers (content,marketing, advanced products) since this issue was a time consuming distraction. We continue to believe that XMSR will be FCF positive in 4Q06 (MLe $32mm).

New fix is in place, but FCC questions remain. The new FM modulator device relies on an additional third wire which is installed by the consumer directly to their car's antenna. Although this may complicate the installation process, XM suggested that it was a fix that would protect the sound quality of the transmission for a good consumer experience. The FCC, however, is still seeking the outcome of an internal investigation regarding the noncompliance
of FM-modulator devices from XM, something SIRI already provided.


Remain Neutral. We are maintaining our Neutral rating on XM Satellite Radio. In our opinion, satellite radio is a viable business model and represents one of the few secular growth stories remaining in the media sector. Negative news overhangs concerning non-compliance with FCC regulations as well as the reported softness in the retail channel continues to affect the industry, yet our long-term outlook remains positive for the industry.

Ray Marine Unit With Sirius Reviewed

August 25, 2006

CNN Money recently reviewed the new Ray marine unit that has a "boatload" of features including Sirius Satellite Radio.

Article Excerpts:

The Business Life

Smooth sailing over troubled waters
Rain or shine: One company is revolutionizing the way captains navigate through rough weather.


By Jessica Seid, CNNMoney.com staff writer
August 25 2006: 3:27 PM EDT
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) --



When I was given the assignment to check out Raymarine's latest technology on a yacht in New York harbor, I knew I had done something right.
In its latest move, Raymarine, a maker of marine electronics, has teamed up with SIRIUS Satellite Radio to provide detailed weather forecast information to its navigation displays.

That means that for about $1,000, boaters can check out the weather, track storms, and monitor sea surface temperature, wind, surface pressure, wave heights and lightning from the captain's chair.


The Marine Weather Service covers the U.S., most of Canada, Mexico and waters extending hundreds of miles into the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean, but it does require a monthly subscription to receive forecasts onboard, which starts at $29.95 a month.
Of course, that's also on top of $4,600 for Raymarine's E Series navigation system with a 12-in. display - not including the cost of individual sensors or installation.


But there's a lot more bang for the buck.
Boaters can check the weather in a full screen or split screen alongside Raymarine's other features like radar, sonar, electronic charts or global positioning satellite imagery, which provides a picture of the streets, parks and closest happy hour spot near where you plan to dock...."

Stiletto Boombox SL-BB1

August 25th, 2006

The S50 Executive Dock definitely looks like something you would find in a catalog from Hammacher Schlemmer, Sharper Image, or even maybe in an Apple computer ad. However, it lacks battery power and is clearly meant to be in your office or home. It is certainly a nice unit and it is likely we will see one for the SL100 and SL10.

The SL-BB1, on the other hand, is designed for your excursions where you may or may not have a power plug. It offers a complete solution for those times when you want everyone to hear your Sirius Satellite Radio service.


Its features include:
  • Works with your SL100 and SL10.
  • Illuminated Controls - Power, Aux, Sat, Volume, Bass EQ.
  • 30W of total power via dual (biamped) Tripath Class D amps.
  • 2-way Component speakers (19mm tweeter + 3" midrange pairs) matched with a 4" slot-loaded internal subwoofer.
  • Headphone Output and Auxillary Input for your iPod, etc.
  • Portable - 8 D-Cells or AC Adapter, Rubber Grip Areas, Onboard Antenna Storage and weighs in about 7.5 pounds.
  • Complete - Includes a Sirius Home Antenna and the AC Power Adapter.

NASDAQ Short Interest

For those of you who follow short interest, after a drop last month, Sirius' short position increased by 18,936,829, from 110,127,890 on July 14th to 129,064,719 on August 15th, with the 2nd highest short interest on the NASDAQ after the NASDAQ 100 Trust. This is increase of 17.20%; keep in mind, Sirius has an average daily volume of 32,077,468 with 6.82 days to cover

XMSR had a decrease in short interest of 22.31%, dropping 8,486,963 from 37,064,358 to 28,795,151. The average daily volume is 8,486,963 with 3.39 days to cover.

Perhaps this short interest pattern indicates a SIRI for XMSR deal is in the works...
