The NAB has filed a Reply to Opposition (PDF) with the FCC disputing Sirius-XM's proposed A La Carte packages.

But the notable part doesn't lie in the filing itself, rather in the fact that comments posted to Orbitcast are actually quoted in the filing. So before we continue, let's give a full round of applause for Joe, Flap Jackson, PFreak, JohnG, and Mr. FancyPants.

I think it's a testament to the strong community here, and the encouraged open format for accepting opposing views. That we'd ever see the ridiculous medley of screennames actually being cited in an FCC filing is deserving as well.

Satellite Radio TechWorld puts it perfectly, the NAB has just "immortalized" the commenters here with this filing. It's proof positive that they read, not only what I'm writing, but what you are writing.

And that's the most important of all.

I've been getting reports from readers that they're having troubles accessing the site. Not good.

I'm yelling at working with my current host to get this resolved (I'm almost 100% sure they're messing with me ever since we destroyed their servers when XM's satellite went down). And at the same time, I'm also in the process of migrating to a different, more robust, hosting platform.

Anyway, for those of you who can only access the site momentarily or can only hit the site when at home, here's a couple tips to stay up-to-date with the latest from The O.

1. RSS Feed - tried and true, you can always subscribe to Orbitcast using this the handy-dandy feed. Here, I'll even give you a big shiny icon to click:

   (Purty isn't it?)
   My personal favorite RSS reader is Google Reader, but there's tons of others like Bloglines, My Yahoo, etc.
   
   
2. Email Updates - Some peeps just don't like RSS and rather stick to good ol' email. That's understandable, so if you want to receive The Orbitcast Daily Update, just click on this link. You'll receive an email every morning recapping the events of the prior day.

3. Twitter - This won't help you read the actual entries, but you can be notified of the latest Orbitcast headlines on Twitter. If you activate your cellphone, you can receive a text message whenever a new post has been added to the site.

Overall, if you need an instantaneous fix, your best bet is the RSS feed, but I'm trying to help out in anyway I can while I battle it out with my host. I do apologize for this, and trust me when I say that I'm working on it as best as I can.
