Together, the 2 have raised nearly $2 billion, and the stock market has rewarded them handsomely: Since the beginning of 1997, Sirius shares are up tenfold, to $44. And since going public in October, XM stock has nearly tripled, to $35. Why the fuss? Because investors think it could be the next hot entertainment-meets-technology business. Beginning early next year, both companies plan to use satellites to beam 100 niche channels of news, talk and music.
