XM-Sirius Merger Approved By DOJ

Google it, there are dozens of articles on the Internet about it. The long and short of it is the Department Of Justice approved unconditionally the merger of satellite radio providers XM and Sirius into one large provider. It still needs to pass the FCC hurdle but if it does go through, anything is possible. I am most curious to see how the programming will be structured. Will Howard Stern and Opie & Anthony play nice together? Will my presets stay the same?

Let's be real, it's not going to monopolize music for anyone. You still have good old terrestrial radio, iPods/iTunes, Internet radio, and CDs.
