Ahh, some of you are going about it the wrong way......We HAVE mobile streaming audio via Sirius and XM. The difference is, how can it be config'ed to each individual user. C'mon, some of you are making it sound impossible as if XM and Sirius don't already exist. Thats the technology right there. The question is how you'd play what YOU want to hear.
Excluding the radio and all legal issues, if there was an extra service with XM and Sirius (which would cost more ofcourse), where you could open an app, queue all mp3s/livesets you wish to hear, have a constant up stream of 128 up to a sirius/XM server, sirius/xm boosts it up via satellite, then relays it back to your car, you'd be somewhat good to go. (ofcourse its a "little" more complex than that)
OR the more logical
You purchase space via Sirius/XM, and pretty much have you're own personal virtual online playlist. From there its relayed up to sat.
With proper configuration, the right receiver, and a password protected private frequency, (assigned to each user, during each session/dependance on location), you're somewhat in business. (again, satellite technology is a "little" more complex than that, i wont get into it tho)
The blueprints and and work is already done, its just a matter of sirius/xm allowing such services, improving their technology, and fighting the millions of legal issues. If anything prevents this, or why it hasn't already been done, is basically because of legal issues, especially right now. Radio stations, record companies, etc. This is the LAST thing they want to see.
If it makes you guys feel any better, i'm listening to fergie and making this post via satellite 
I know enough about satellite streaming technology to tell you its highly possible, but with all the legality issues theyd have to face, it wont happen anytime soon. Its the legal issues that hold the technology behind, it scares the money makers.
