The CRTC has granted Canada's fourth largest cable company, Cogeco Cable, the right to distribute satellite radio services on digital cable.
Currently Cogeco distributes two pay audio services, Galaxie and Max Trax, but this decision means that Cogeco customers will be able to subscribe to Sirius Satellite Radio or XM Satellite Radio over their digital cable service.
This is similar to the CRTC's decision with Rogers Cable, though neither Rogers or Cogeco have made any announcements about when satellite radio would be made available.
