Does anyone know where to get sirius satellite radio in Korea?
I hear guys calling in from South Korea all the time on Howard Stern (I download the torrents everyday).
Hmm...must be an American military connection?
I can't imagine how to purchase this from my local ajoshi. |

You aren't going to pick it up with the satelite. They are never over this hemisphere. The receivers can pickup up a ground based signal that
is broadcast in larger cities in the US to mitigate the blocking of the signal buy buildings etc.
From wikipedia:
On-line media streaming options
Yahoo! Widget
Yahoo! Widget
Sirius subscribers are also able to access all of the proprietary music channels and most of the talk stations, including Howard Stern's channels (Howard 100 and Howard 101) via streaming media through sirius.com.
Attractive alternatives to the browser based player are available such as a Yahoo! Widget (designed to look like a miniature Sportster model), and SIRIUS Internet Radio Player (based on Windows Media Player and available as plug-in or standalone application). Both alternatives are gaining popularity with streaming listeners, and offer artist and track name information updated in real time, which is an improvement from the online Sirius player.
Sirius subscribers who use a Linux-based operating system can use Sipie to stream on-line channels, neither Windows Media Player nor a web browser are needed. |

Also from wikipedia:
Sirius Internet Radio
In October 2006, Sirius announced that it was launching a new service named Sirius Internet Radio that would, for the first time, offer approximately 75 of the 135 Sirius channels worldwide to people other than subscribers to its satellite radio service. Prior to this, Sirius subscribers who had a satellite radio were also able to access many of the Sirius channels via the internet, using a special password, but the service operated at 32kbps and was only available to those who purchased a satellite radio receiver. Sirius Internet Radio (SIR) is an internet-only subscription, allowing worldwide listeners to listen to the content without having to purchase a satellite radio receiver. The service also expands the number of channels that are available to Stiletto users via WiFi. |
