I thought Sirius/ XM might make it. The combined company is a monopoly, right?

All they need is some capital, it would seem to be a reasonable investment.

Yes, the high cost of talent hurt them. Howard Stern is a great draw, but at some price he makes no sense. Maybe by paying Stern $500 million --they tried to grow too fast. Factor in the recession, when people are cutting back on non-essential services, and... kaboom.
