XM is the brand name of a satellite radio provider. Their competitor in the market is Sirius Radio. Both provide a wide variety of audio stations beamed from a satellite. This means they are available anywhere in North America, so you can listen to the same station all across the US. Cost for the service is about $10 a month. New GM cars and vehicles are all equipped with XM radio and most come with a free 90 day subscribtion with a new car. Other auto makers also have satellite radios. You can obtain hand held and MP3 capable players as well.

In the world of radio communication:

AM . . . "Amplitude Modulation"; one method of adding information to a

radio wave for transmission to another location.

FM . . . "Frequency Modulation"; another method of adding information to a

radio wave for transmission to another location.

XM . . . A trade name, a logo, a cool and catchy tag that someone decided to

use as the name for their satellite-distributed subscription radio service, to

make it sound like something you just simply need to have in order to keep up

with what's happening.

Can you get XM radio on your home radio?

You can only "get" XM radio on your "home radio" if you have a XM tuner and a paid subscription. The XM radio service is service satellite based and does not utilize the same system as FM or AM radio in your local area. You must have an XM receiver and an appropriate antenna in order to receive XM radio. There are a few "home radios" that contain an XM tuner and in those cases with a paid subscription, you could listen to XM radio in your home.
