He probably has a variety of listening habits (besides always listening to you, of course), whether it be music, sports, talk radio, etc., and while his local radio stations may satisfy most of his listening needs, there's something missing.  What is missing is satellite radio, which will likely satisfy all of his auditory needs, and then some.  His favorite music genres, the best of the best radio sports programming, comedy, and more are all available, and mostly commercial free, through a satellite radio subscription. Explore what satellite radio has to offer, and you'll find this unique radio experience is a gift he will find that's out of this world.

Satellite radio is, simply, radio programming powered by satellites circling the Earth. The two primary providers of satellite radio in the United States - XM and Sirius - boast a myriad of channels featuring a wide variety of music, sports, talk, and entertainment programming designed to meet a wide array of listening habits. While local radio has its own benefits, satellite radio generally boasts clear signals and continuous streams of audio - the same channels can be listened to, no matter how long the trip, practically without loss of signal.

Satellite radio receivers are available for his car or residence, and portable units are available to be used in both places.  As previously mentioned, XM and Sirius are the leaders in the United States satellite radio market, and while each provides similar music genres, news, and entertainment selections, there are distinct differences between the two, so explore what his favorite talk show hosts and media personalities are and cross reference what each service provides.  Buy at least a year's subscription for him to avoid having to renew month to month.

Listen up - satellite radio is a spectacular gift to consider this year. While there may be an initial reluctance by him to give up his local radio mainstays, the option of having a variety of crystal-clear radio spanning more channels than possible with local radio will make satellite radio a gift that will slowly grow on him, and it will make you grow on him even more!
