XM Satellite Radio and Napster have launched their co-branded digital music store that will allow users to listen to 70+ XM channels and download music they hear on the service, Beta News reports. Customers will also be able to browse the rest of the service’s catalog, just as with Napster’s regular service.
A portable music player with the capability of listening to XM and marking songs for later download will be available from Samsung shortly. Users will be able to mark songs they hear on the radio for later download - which happens automatically when the device is synced.
Volvo will become the first automaker to offer HD Radio as standard equipment in all but one of its 2009 models. The running change becomes effective next month on the 2009 Volvo model lineup.
