XM willm be in real trouble if Sirius pulls this off. Mel Karmazin, chief executive officer of Sirius Satellite Radio, has had discussions with Apple about incorporating satellite radio into iPods, although there is currently no interest in adding such a feature.

Mr Karmazin told a conference in New York that Steve Jobs, chief executive of Apple Computer, currently did not believe iPod users needed anything other than the ability to download thousands of songs.

XM has the MyFi portable player, but it has real limitations. Only 5 hours of music, and you can cant sync it with your music collection. iPod is the king of MP3 players, now they might become the king of Sattelite music also.
