Found out today that one of my favorite online radio stations has made the jump to Sirius satellite radio. Granted, its not your typical online radio station, but Jimmy Buffett’s Radio Margaritaville. Sirius added Radio Margaritaville to its lineup last month.
Jimmy’s like the Oprah of radio: he’s got a media empire (albeit smaller than O’s. Or Martha Stewart, who is also making the move). Jimmy’s got the clout to pitch his radio pet project to Sirius and have them listen.
You can find him on Channel 98. He’s also on the Dish network’s music channels, too. And of course, you can still listen for free on the Internet.
I’d love to get a channel on Sirius. Can a man dream?
