Greetings,

Most of you are probably aware of the growing business of satellite radiio
programming being offered to motorists throughout the United States, with
programming ranging from news sports, entartainment, music, Etc.  ABC is
offering a portion of its satellite programming, siriusradio.com, to
Internet users, free of charge.  The portion of the programming which is
available, live, 24-hours-a-day, 7 days a week, is the music channels.  The
remainder of the program menues are taped segments of previous programming.
In short, if you listen to the music channels of "Sirius Satellite Radio",
you will hear the same live programming that is available to those who have
subscribed to "Sirius Satellite Radiio".  So, if you have Internet access,
and care to check this offering out, all you need to do is log on to the web
site www.siriusradio.com and go to the listen menu, and choose the music
channel of your choice.  When you log on to the site, you'll have to adjust
the volume to your personal comfort level.  If you're using JAWS, you need
to press control, and the home key, and choose high or low volume.  When you
first log on to the site, you'll most likely find the volume at a fairly low
volume level.

Hopefully, I've explained this site carefully enough, however, if I have not
done so clearly enough for you, please do not hesitate to contact me, and I
will do my best to clarify things, to the best of my ability.  As I said,
this Internet service is free of charge, as of this time.  I do not know
what ABC's future plans are, so I cannot say for how long this service will
remain free of charge, however, you can enjoy it, as long as it remains free
of charge.


Enjoy,

Frank Casey
