Was having an interesting conversation the other day with a few friends regarding satellite radio subscription services.

Three people I know pay for satellite radio in their cars (one has the option to take his out of the car) - two recently gave up their subscriptions because their listening needs could be met for 'free' with other technologies they already owned (iPhone, iPhone, iPad). They simply use Internet enabled radio (don't know the actual term) to listen to virtually any station in the country and many stations around the world. They say they actually mostly use it to listen to local stations when traveling outside the OKC area. Also to listen to sports.

What's your thoughts - do you currently pay for radio? Do you think its days are numbers? Do you think there will (for the foreseeable future) be a place for subscription radio?

Me personally - I'm not a huge radio fan so I've never considered paying for radio. I listen to local stations wherever I am or just listen to the music library in my iPod.
