"Gonna drive past the Stop 'n' Shop/With my iPod on" just doesn't have quite the same punch as Jonathan Richman's original version, but there's nevertheless an ongoing discussion amongst non-Modern Lovers members that continued iPod integration (hot on the heels of yesterday's iPod nano and Motorola ROKR intros) in both new vehicles and aftermarket systems could cut into the pie of satellite radio providers Sirius and XM. While Sirius remains officially mum on the issue, XM execs are confident that the overlap in modern in-car entertainment won't impact them. We think there's a place for both. Of course, we're still back in the dark ages of playing CDs through a cassette adapter on our crappy stock Mopar sound system, so can we really be trusted on this?
