Both XM and Sirius have radios/recorders coming out this fall that are able to store multiple hours of programming as well as saving individual songs. The Sirius unit, which I am waiting to purchase is the S50. It is due out in mid October and holds up to 50 hours of programming, as well as playing your own MP3's. XM has a similar unit coming this fall as well. These are XM and Sirius's answers to the IPOD.
