awesome.

As bad as I hate to admit it, Bob Dylan is like Opie and Anthony. I gave them a chance and they failed. I like XM for the music. Its sick they have to get the content that sirius didn't want.

I don't understand XM. First they put O&A on regular radio (giving no one a reason to subscribe), now they put Bob Dylan's show on AOL, which is free to everyone. Why would anyone subscribe? You don't see Sirius putting Stern on free radio or free internet. There is a reason for that.

I guess I wasn't aware that AOL Radio wasn't already getting the show when it normally airs on Deep Tracks and The Village. Did anyone else know that AOL Radio was getting different programming than the satellites?

"As bad as I hate to admit it, Bob Dylan is like Opie and Anthony."

Wrong. Bob Dylan is talented.

"You don't see Sirius putting Stern on free radio or free internet"

No, they allow him to pull in 12.95 using their content on HowardTV. Dont think Sirius gets a dime of that by the way.

I just listened to the stream on AOL of Modern Times. Sounds better on my Inno. So does O&A.

"No, they allow him to pull in 12.95 using their content on HowardTV. Dont think Sirius gets a dime of that by the way."

Come on buddy, that isn't the same, and you know it. Those shows are only an hour long (not 5-6 hours), are on TV at least a day, but usually a week, after its broadcast, and isn't available in the car, from what I know. As an aside, I guarantee there are very few people, if any, who subscribe only to HowardTV and not Sirius. Those who would pay for HowardTV are hardcore fans. Those fans would want their Stern live in the morning on their way to work.

On the other hand, O&A are available on the radio for free while you drive to work. And now Dylan, when most people are home, is available at night for free on AOL. Its not the same thing and we all know it.

Did anyone else know that AOL Radio was getting different programming than the satellites?

Yes. I tried to listen to Dylan's show on Winamp's AOL Radio button like the 4th or 5th week it was out, and the DJ at the time said something to the effect of " If you were expecting to hear Dylan's show, it's only available to XM subscribers."

I still think it's cool this is going to be available to a larger audience. his show is the sole reason to listen to Deep Trax ( or The Village for that matter)

"I don't understand XM. First they put O&A on regular radio (giving no one a reason to subscribe)," Oh, but you're forgetting that you only hear the first 3 hours of O&A on Free FM. The show does *not* end after they leave at 9 AM eastern, plus some of their best material has happened during the XM part of the show.

Its so funny how people complain when a stern article gets commented on by O&A fans yet the same people managed to take a piece on Bob Dylan and use it as an excuse for O&A bashing. Wow.

Dylan does put on a great show, I just keep forgetting to record it so I can actually listen. I dont think that playing it over AOL is going to make a difference postive or negative for XM. Youre all crazy.
