A Sprint to the front of the satellite radio industry for Sirius
Posted by Dominic Basulto
Arik Hesseldahl of Forbes highlights a new partnership between Sirius Satellite Radio and Sprint PCS (Sirius will provide music content to Sprint's mobile phone customers) and hints at other product announcements that could be coming from Sirius over the next 12 months. For example, Sirius could launch a video service sometime in 2006, as well as a number of data services for radio listeners.
There's also a persistent rumor that Sirius and Apple are talking about a collaborative partnership of some kind:
"Sirius is also said to be talking with Apple about adding Sirius content to Apple's iTunes service and bringing the Sirius service to a future version of the iPod... Another possibility is for Apple to offer some Sirius programming within its iTunes software. Already, many streaming radio stations are listed within the radio section of iTunes, and Sirius, and indeed XM, might be natural targets for such an offering."
