Old aricle but interesting........
Why Liberty Media’s recent interest in the Worldspace assets? Little did many people realize at the time, but XM Radio’s infrastructure – now part of Sirius XM Radio – is compatible with the Worldspace Inc technology. It took a while for our readers to pick up on the significance of that (but they rapidly learned from our own Steve Garcia, who has pretty much nailed this situation down from the beginning.)

Now bounce to another part of the drama. John Malone stepping down from the DirecTV Board of Directors. Could John Malone be ready to turn the reigns over to widely recognized successor Greg Maffei? Think about this: if this occurs, would it not make perfect sense for Mel Karmazin, who steered Sirius XM through the 2009 minefield, to lead a combined global strategy headed by Liberty Media to push satellite radio content overseas?

There are more sides to the story than facets on a 100-carat diamond. Any investor covering the satellite media companies will quickly declare something is going on. As the plot thickens, readers continue to look for answers as it unfolds.

Who can blame them. Many retail SIRI investors have already experienced gains other investors dreamed of during their entire investment experience.

Factor in more problems with terrestrial broadcasting companies keeping the lights on.
