I mean there are people probably not buying GM and getting Chrsyler because they like howard better than O&A.

I'll bet GM and Chrysler like having two sellers of pre-installed wiring kits, though. Easier to keep costs down . . .
I'm not sure whether satellite radio is a separate "market" in the antitrust sense. Too many other things to switch to, many of which are free. That said, I don't know the facts of the case.
