XM Satellite Radio has settled a lawsuit brought forth by Warner Music Group over XM’s Pioneer Inno, enabling XM listeners to record music from the record label on XM devices.

XM also struck a similar deal earlier this month with Universal Music, which had also filed suit against the satellite radio provider arguing that the licenses granted to XM were for broadcast only, and did not include the right to enable customers to make recordings of the media. Both agreements are multi-year deals that cover current XM radios and future devices.

I wonder when the FM stations are going to suffer the same fate as XM...good sounding FM is superior in quality to the MP3 like stuff on sat radio.
