Mike, over at Techdirt, called Harry Fuller to the carpet for his assault on Howard Stern’s value since making the leap into orbit. I think Mike makes an excellent point, as Harry Fuller’s argument completely failed to consider the monthly premium Stern fans now pay. It also seems interesting that his Ad buys are getting a third of their previous value with less than a third of the potential audience. My fuzzy math says that makes that a higher per listener buy rate. What do I know though, Sirius was silly not to build in some sort of listener tracking system to their product. (On second thought, I really don’t want them canning fabulous niche shows with 5 devoted listeners in favor of more star studded vapid programming)*†

So, what are your Sirius presets? Or, do you have XM? How does the other side live?
