There are all sorts of interesting factoids about Canadian satellite radio sales in this press release.
Sirius Canada unveiled last week that it has signed up more than 500,000 paying subscribers nationwide, adding more than 200,000 since February alone.
...
Sirius Canada said its automotive partners make up nearly 60 percent of vehicle sales in Canada, and since the beginning of 2007 have built more than 100,000 vehicles with factory installed Sirius radios. (Sirius Canada’s automotive partners include Ford, Chrysler, Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lexus, Mazda, MINI, Subaru, Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo.)
I haven't taken the plunge yet, but everybody I know who has Sirius loves it, especially if their job involves a lot of driving.
Anyway, nothing earth shaking about this per se, and I have no nasty comments to make about it, but I thought that I should bring it to your attention.

First, you can quote www.marketnews.ca for these stories! (haha)
Second, I am a Sirius user, and have been for a few years now, and I absolutely LOVE it. In fact, just this morning I ran back up to my condo with an angry face because I forgot my receiver in the kitchen (where it was hooked up to the home dock and a table radio). I couldn't imagine driving to work for even one day without it! :) The thought of standard radio was revolting. haha. I'd highly recommend it for anyone who drives, and spends even a moment of each day in rush hour traffic.
My apologies Christine, you scooped The Bridge by nearly a week:
