Mercora, one of the place shifting companies I have written in the past is going mobile.
To remind you all, Mercora is a peer-to-peer radio network which lets you share playlists of music on your hard drives with a certain set of friends, or listeners.
Mercora may get booted from the carrier networks in the short term, but I would rather bet on their business model (long term) than the buisness model of the satellite radio providers.

In November, a startup called Mercora plans to launch a service that will attempt to answer that question.
