Not sure why EchoStar is even in the conversation. DirecTV already broadcasts XM channels as part of its TV package. Seems like an easy jump for them to acquire SIRI.

Echostar/Dish Network has had Sirius programming for years.

Oh, didn't know that - well that makes more sense. Hopefully whomever acquires SIRI has the good sense to leave Howard alone.

If Sirius were to go bankrupt, who they be allowed to pay Howard $100 million a year?

Welcome to the deep end, please pick up a pair of these before jumping in:

And DISH broadcasts Sirius channels as part of its package...
