Wish I could. Sirius is not available in Canada. They believe it will be launching in December.

In the mean time all of us up here are hooping for torrents or FTP versions of the shows.

Pablo, do you have any plans to torrent these replays?

As far as I know, I have signed up for Sirius and you can receive it anywhere in the world. Check out Sirius.com and buy a receiver and sign up for the service. If I can get a signal on Alligator Alley, you should get it in Canada... GO LIGHTNING!!!!!!!

Pablo and all,

We can get the signal in Canada it just our government doesn't allow us to subscribe to it LEGALLY. Our government wants to limit competition and expose us to a minimum amount of Canadian Content. They have approved Sirius but with restrictions. It should launch this December but with content restrictions. The fate of Radio Margaritaville on Canadian Sirius Radio is unknown today.

You can get more details here:

So, In the meantime can you help us Canadian's out and Torrent the shows?

I record them as often as I can. Here is how I do it...

First I have a Sirius Starmate unit..

Second I have Creative Labs Live Soundblaster 24 External unit...

Third I have a mini to mini stereo adapter to connect the line out of the Starmate to line in of the Soundblaster...

Finally I hook all of that up and use CD Wave to record the shows in WAV format and also to split up the tracks of the concert once it's recorded.

It's pretty straight forward stuff. I encode all the shows I get to flac format and store them. I have a phatbox in my car that plays flac files so I load them on there. I'm not a big MP3 fan so I go for the lossless formats. You can encode and record to MP3 with CD Wave, though I'm not really familiar with that process...

I hope that helps some.
