When XM first started, they had both a Chinese and an Indian channel-but I guess they weren't that popular and they took them off the lineup.

I'd like to see them add a channel for either J-Pop or J,K&C-Pop as there's a very large following developing for it especially with the growing popularity of anime in the states. (do a google search for j-pop, you'll see what I mean)
(edit below)
No sooner did I post this message, when later in the day I read a report on all access that XM is doing a channel similar to this idea. <P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by DJKraze on 06/21/05 04:55 PM.</FONT></P>

Chinese and Bolly-pop still have a very limited audience still here in the US. You'd have a better chance of seeing another "latin" channel added to the lineup before this. I like the idea of selling the channels as some sort of additional access package like they do for Dish Network,though

I would think that they might add a reggaton (spanish hip hop) channel since that's getting popular....we had a station pop up in LA that plays that music and some of the mainstream stations are also adding latin hip hop songs to their playlist.

Reggation is like the rebirth of swing music in the late 90's: Its a fad. It'll dissapear within a few years.

One of the reasons I jumped from Sirius to XM is Audio Vision, which I thought would be more Celtic but is really more New Age.
