VOX
This was a challenge to listen to. I do like some opera. However, I really have to be in the mood for it. It also doesn't seem to work as a "hop in the car, drive to the grocery" station for me. Vox tends to play complete operas or at least full acts from Operas. While this will please the Opera buffs, I often don't hear the plot summary. I also like to follow along with the lyrics and the translation.
I heard some of the choral music which I liked.
I'll probably be back to Vox a few times. I think I'd like it more on long trips as a change of pace. I'll also check in during Christmas for choral Christmas music.
However, this is a great station for XM to have. The person with enough money to attend the opera assuredly has enough money to pay for satellite radio. Even on FM classical channels, opera is rarely heard.
