Fox Rejoins Sirius Line Up

By Digital Trends Staff February 17, 2006

Sirius Satellite Radio and Fox News Radio today announced a new long term agreement to bring Fox’s news talk radio style programming back to the satellite radio provider’s line up of channels. The previous agreement had expired at end of 2005.

Under the terms of the new relationship, the two organizations said, Fox News rejoins the Sirius line up at channel 131. The Fox News Talk channel, which offers news, analysis, listener call-ins, and commentary from Fox News personalities such as Bill O’Reilly, Tony Snow, John Gibson and Alan Colmes, among others, will air on channel 145.

“We are very pleased to have reached an agreement with Fox to bring back its news service to Sirius and to add what is a compelling talk channel,” said Scott Greenstein, Sirius President of Entertainment and Sports, in a statement. “Our goal was to negotiate a new agreement that would be in the best interest of our subscribers and shareholders, and the new agreement fulfills that objective.”

SiriusXM’s Taylor Swift channel is free if your car has satellite radio

Taylor Swift on SiriusXM in a Hyundai Palisade.

It's Taylor Swift's world — we're just living in it. That was true before today, which saw the release of The Tortured Poets Department. But it's especially true given that you'll now be able to listen to all the Taylor Swift you want, for free, for the next few weeks.

Sirius XM earlier announced that the previously open Channel 13 has been transformed to Channel 13 (Taylor's Version). That is, all Taylor Swift, all the time. All you needed was a SiriusXM account. But even that minor bit of gatekeeping has been lifted a good bit. If you have a car that has the hardware for SiriusXM — and SXM believes that 50% of all cars on the road are so equipped — Channel 13 (Taylor's Version) will be available for free, through May 6.

Now, the British audio maker, which has never been known to rest on its laurels, has announced the launch of the amp's latest iteration, the CXA81 Mk II Stereo Amplifier. It's received an upgraded digital-to-analog converter (DAC), some new components, and a bit of retuning at the hands of Cambridge's "engineering maestros."

The flagship of Cambridge Audio's CX series, the CXA81 is well-regarded for its punchy, dynamic, and crystal clear sound signature, driven by itd Class AB amplifier at a powerful 80 watts per channel (at 8 ohms).
