According to Torsten Freymark, chairman of Ondas Media,

We'll have a mix of a wide variety of music genres. Jazz, classical, oldies rock, house, country - whatever people's listening habits are, we'll do it.

Whereas, WorldSpace, Washington DC company, is setting up to offer the UK up to 50 advert-free stations by 2008 on radio sets capable of receiving the satellite signal, which will eventually cost about £65.
