Are you willing to pay for a Sirius Radio plug-in?

[Kyle]

A developer has come up with an XM plug-in, but so far there is no Sirius plug-in. I'd be willing to pay for such a program, and if others are too, maybe we could entice the XM developer or someone else to work on it. Post here if you'd be willing to kick in a nominal amount to encourage someone to work on this type of plug-in. I don't know exactly how we would work it out, but I'm sure if enough are interested we can come up with something.

EDIT: Some may misunderstand what I am asking. Sirius subscribers can access the streams online. I think all of the music streams and a few of the talk streams are available. Howard Stern is not currently online but assures his listeners that he will be soon. What I am talking about is a one-time payment to a developer to put together a Sirius plug-in -- maybe $5-$10 apiece, so we could pay someone $50-$100 to do the codework. No guarantees that someone would agree to do it, but so many people write code for free that someone ought to take it on for a small fee.

Sorry, I like free radio.

I dislike free radio, so a Sirius Radio plug-in sounds interesting

Should be easy for a perl guy to do especially now with the slim framework code written for XM...

Not much different other than the channel selection and the authentication for login, and that's documented here....

No. I like free radio, too.

Positively...I need my Howard in the house (I have two car accounts already)! Who do I write the check to?

I vote free radio. I understand there are some pirate radio stations
re-broadcasting Howard for free, I wouldn't mind one of those stations being
available on Slim.

I already have too many things that I need to pay for. Radio isn't one of them (not even TV)...
