In Sacramento there is a great Smooth Jazz station (94.7), an Oldies/Goodies (92.1) and an awesome Alternative Rock (106.5) that I regularly tune into. When in the Bay Area I listened to a great Smooth Jazz station (103.7) which had early morning shows hosted by Ramsey Lewis...so neat. This week, the SF Jazz Station 103.7 went top 40 and tomorrow, the Alternative Rock 106.5 will no longer exist. I guess the prediction...death of free radio...may becoming reality???? Since I travel all over Northern California for my job, I need constant music (besides CDs) so wonder if XM or Serius is the best way to go? What are the advantages or disadvantages of each...besides having to pay...ARGH!!!
