Fortune Magazine named XM Satellite Radio its "Product of the Year."
The honor, in an article by Fortune Senior Editor Peter Lewis, appears in the magazine's Dec. 24 edition, on newsstands Dec. 17.
"Of all the new technologies of 2001, XM Satellite Radio is way, way, way above the rest. It's the first major advance in radio since FM emerged in the 1960s, and the best thing to happen to mobile music since the dashboard CD player..." Fortune wrote. "If you spend a lot of time on the highways, you'll never go back to listening to stations that fade in and out and don't play your kind of music."
XM, launched this fall, features 100 coast-to-coast digital channels: 71 music channels, more than 30 of them commercial-free, from hip hop to opera, classical to country, bluegrass to blues; and 29 channels of sports, talk, children's and entertainment, including a trucking channel. XM radios are available at major electronics retailers nationwide.
