WorldSpace uses its two satellites, AfriStar™ and AsiaStar™, to broadcast digital-quality audio channels to people around the world who want world-class programming that is not available or rarely found on local regional or national terrestrial radio. Each satellite has three beams and each beam is able to send up to 80… (more) channels directly to portable satellite radios. Inside each WorldSpace digital satellite radio is a proprietary chipset designed to lock onto the WorldSpace satellite signal in your region of the world.
No other option provides the variety of programming that WorldSpace offers. Also, each WorldSpace satellite radio is equipped with a data port that transforms it into a wireless modem able to download data to personal computers at rates of up to 128kbps. Thus, the WorldSpace satellite radio can also broadcast multimedia content. (less)
