As you say, what I like about those radios, is that you get ti know new bands... But I will not buy the radio if the sound quality is at least not digital. Remember that HD radio also has song/artist info.
It is in the 32 to 50kps, as some channels have "better" compression than others... yes, it is sorry but somehow it works decent. And I've never listened to Sirius in any of my cars with an OEM sound system, only aftermarket amps and speakers... and still sound decent to me, not great at all.

I like Sirius because they really have a great variety of great songs; probably it has cost me some $50 to $60 extra in iTunes so far by buying songs that I listen first on Sirius.
