Satellite radio can cover the whole continent, while regular radio stations only cover a particular area in a specific part of a state. However, HD radio is free, and it follows the same business model as the standard radio station.

The main concern with satellite radio is that it drops off. HD radio receives equally digital and analog radio stations.
