I have been a Direct TV customer for years and it seems my controlled way of watching television had gotten the better of me. I always knew that Direct TV offered XM radio on their stations, but I never truly checked them out. As I said earlier, I must have programmed myself to stay in the low hundred’s, because channels 801 through 879 were somewhat foreign to me. A few months ago I left the television on a contemporary

jazz channel while doing chores. It was at the moment when I was screwing in the blown light bulb that a big bright idea hit me. I suddenly realized that “Direct TV offers XM Satellite Radio” essentially for free. You must be thinking what’s wrong with this guy? That is like a totally blond moment right there. I knew it existed; I just never took the time to totally enjoy it, or explore the full capabilities of.

With my real world revelation and my excitement bubbling over, I got to work in making the most of this beauty XM RADIO BABY!!!!!!. In the past month I have set my stereo up to the satellite and used the music from the modern jazz channel as a backdrop for a dinner party I hosted. I also bought a little mini stereo system for my room and connected it to the Direct TV system. I am a person who loves to sleep to music, so now I am able to hear smooth jazz courtesy of XM radio. I can fall asleep and wake up to the lustrous sounds of jazz riffs and guitar strums.

XM & Direct TV is really a perfect combination. There are more revelations I found out, but I will keep that for a later time. I will not overload you with information that will leave you guys saying “Jeez, what’s up with this dude.”
