We have XM radio. I quite like it as it has the BBC World Service station 24/7.

Also some other good stations....I like 'Lucy' (plays The Cure, The Smiths etc.) and U-Pop....lots of new British and European bands.

Going slightly O/T, I was listening to the audio channel on British Airways this month and although I'd heard of Lily Allen I hadn't heard her music. I was really impressed - it's a mixture of ska, reggae and pop....a bit girly I suppose as it's about going down the pub, useless boyfriend, a younger brother smoking pot but it was so refreshing to listen to as it was so English. ;)

I bought the CD in Tesco's and all of my girlfriends here in the US like it too :) Look at the great reviews here on the US Amazon website and you can listen to excerpts of the songs on her CD (I don't know if her CD is in the shops here yet):

I agree Englishmum, I really like her cd as well...i bought it when i was back in september after hearing one of the songs on the radio. You really can hear her accent when she sings, very english!
