Game, Set, Match. In my opinion it is over for terrestrial and internet radio competition. The Sirius app is coming to the car and there is absolutely nothing any other radio company can do to compete with Sirius' content on demand. Sirius' business model beats every other radio business model. The only threat was what happens when internet radio comes to the car. We now have the answer. Sirius builds sat radio and its internet app into the car architecture together with the full cooperation of car manufacturers. Game over. Excerpts from Jessica's interview -
David Frear - CFO
Yes. Well, it certainly -- they're all accretive to EBITDA, and they recorded very little risk capital due. Sirius XM17 is -- and I'll come back to telematics. It's an interesting product. It's effectively taking what we've been doing in the science lab, i.e. the app. And you work out things in the app, and then you port them over to in-car architecture.
....So we will see. We've got a couple of OEMs who are working now to see how quickly they can incorporate in the car, I'll tell you that we have been showing the capabilities to OEMs at the Consumer Electronic Show for few years now. And it really resonated this last year. We took it from showing them what capabilities there could be to what the product would actually be in the last CES Show. And it has an overwhelmingly positive response. All of them would like to get it in. Now it's down to the hard work of getting it into their engineering priority list, they've all decided that it's going in, and now it's just timing. And we will see where that goes.

And you said that it benefited both churn, its retention and then -- I mean what are things can people on-demand content become a bigger part of what comes out of this?
David Frear - CFO
It's all going to be there, right. So, all the on-demand content that's currently available through the app will be there in vehicle.
