I'm wondering, naturally enough, which five Canadian streams Sirius will add for us American listeners next month (assuming those reports are correct that Sirius will in fact add five streams).
CBC Radio One seems obvious, leaving the other four picks open to speculation (unless someone has a definitive answer).
Just from a cursory glance at the list, it looked to me like the following might make appealing additions: CBC Radio 3, Iceberg Radio and Hardcore Sports Radio.
Not sure what I'd pick for the fifth selection. I can see reasons to add Bandeapart, Energie2 or even RCI Plus (although I would suppose RCI Plus's English broadcasts would be covered elsewhere, making that a less-appealing choice perhaps). If I spoke French, I could make a stronger case for Infoplus or Première Plus. (Thinking aloud and second-guessing myself, I might prefer the music streams Bandeapart and Energie2 over Hardcore Sports Radio. That's just a matter of personal preference, though, and I'm not even sure about it myself.)
Anyone have any idea as to the odds these streams will get the nod?
Also, would Sirius give the nod to Francophone CBC streams as opposed to English-speaking streams produced by others (such as Iceberg)?
By the way, I hope that Sirius includes title-and-artist visual information on the music streams it adds; I find that this is of value on existing streams.
