What is the difference between satallite radio and HD radio?

Posted by admin on February 28th, 2010 and filed under radio | 1 Comment »

For his birthday, I would like to buy my boyfriend one of these two types of radio for his car, but what is the difference? What is better? I think he would enjoy the different radio stations not available on regular radio, can I get that on both? I am electronically "dumb" and would appreciate any advice from the savvy.

Satellite radio requires a monthly subscription fee. There are two competing formats , Sirius and another one.

HD radio is over-the-air free digital radio. You get local stations.

So, satellite has more channels, but you pay for it.
