What about Satellite Radio?
Sirius/XM offers subscription radio. This is also a lossy compressed digital
audio signal, unfortunately being broadcast at lower bit rates.
The merger between Sirius and XM occurred at the end of July 2008. Because
both Sirius and XM used different compression technologies different circuits
are necessary to decode the signals. If you are interested you can now get a
tuner which will receive both Sirius and XM broadcasts.
The
Onkyo
T-4555S HD/AM/FM/XM/Sirius Tuner is one such example.
