You never heard of cable TV?? Commercials and you pay.....[/quote:c9734]

I haven't heard any commercials on Sirius, besides advertising their traffic and so on. Besides, its not quite the same thing. You pay the cable company, not the networks that are on your cable system. The different networks run commercials not the cable company itself, aside from a little self-promotion. You don't see non-HBO advertising on HBO, because you pay separately for that.
