Another way to look at it is this:
On broadcast radio _you_ are the product. The customer is the advertiser. The broadcaster offers to attract certain listeners for the customer. They differentiate themselves from their competition by the types of listeners they attract.
On Satellite radio the _music_ is the product. You are the customer.
It is a world of a difference. I find it somewhat painful to go back and listen to broadcast radio now that I'm hooked on satellite.
