hey, DO NOT EVEN TRY TO PIRATE SIRIUS or RECIEVE PIRATED TRANSMISSIONS.

They have a special kind of lawyer cross-bred with the Balrog in the bowels of hell. And because it is a satellite system that is also used by the US Govt, (in order to keep subscriptions and equipment costs down, it piggy backs many Govt. satellites that transmit secure information, they can push that you might have even been trying to hack the friggin gibson on uncle sam, and you will go to a federal pinch-n-the-cheek / pound-in-the-ass prison, if not worse.

Well not to pirate it, I was just wondering if a sirius radio was the only way to recieve transmissions...I have no desire to further my [s:6afd9c2ad1]illegal[/s:6afd9c2ad1] questionable activities as it is...I'm just wondering if I wanted to get a subscription or something, could I recieve the broadcast via an oline stream or something...

Oh, I see... you were just wondering if you could LEGALLY subcribe to their service if you didn't buy their equipment, huh?

yes, Sirius subscribers can listen online at no additional cost.

Yup...When I get my new whip, I'm gettin' the Sirius deal, should make my road trips here and there go smoother, and maybe not have to torture everyone with my musical choices...Shit, if I could find good programming, I'd subscribe now...

read what i wrote about calpine, but the optimum window I mention for the energy market is closing fast.

I wish it wasn't illegal for me to leverage the market... at least i get paid well enough to make it worth it.

bandyta, don't worry about those Sirius stocks just yet...just give it enough time until the next earnings report comes out. I have a feeling they will hit their stretch goals for holiday sales with stern coming. just don't hold on to it too long...if you see a profitable spike take your money and run...after all this is a company that is still losing millions of dollars every quarter and is not expecting to actually have a profitable quarter for atleast another year.

as far as the natural food company you were talking about i believe you mean Whole Foods Market (Nasdaq:WFMI)...great company, i've owned it for over 5 years now and i've made a profit of almost 500%. If you plan on getting aboard for some quick trading now is the time to do it, current prices are over $150 a share but there is a 2 for 1 split scheduled for right after christmas (i think 12/27). Buy it up and then get rid of it 2 days before the next earnings come out next february. Holiday time is statistically excellent for them, this is the one time of year many people are willing to spend the extra money to buy their more expensive food so the sales tend to soar...plus they have added 15 or so new stores this year to add to their quarter over quarter profit. I just have a worry that the new stock option laws and the aftermath of hurricane Katrina may put them slightly below estimates for this period (they had to rebuild 3 whole stores after the hurricane and the stock options are now costing them about an extra 18million because of new tax laws)...so if you're looking for a more long term investment you might want to play it safe and wait until after that report comes out just in case....though i must admit they bounced back much faster than expected after last quarter.
