CSR signs up thousands


TORONTO – Canadian Satellite Radio has pre-signed over 3,000 customers interested in subscribing to satellite radio, the company announced this morning.

In the press release, CSR re-confirmed its service is “expected to be launched before the end of the year.”

CSR street teams conducted pre-registration sign-ups in July at the Toronto Molson Indy and the Dark Knights Nationals race kit event in Markham as well as through CSR website registrations online at www.cdnsatrad.com.

"Thousands of Canadians have committed to the benefits of our satellite radio offering: the diversity, choice and portability are obviously appealing to a broad spectrum of the population," said Stephen Tapp, CSR’s president and COO, in the release.

"The excitement is building as we get closer to service launch. I thank all of our future customers who have pre-registered for CSR’s service," said Tapp. "Offering extensive listening choice to rural and urban Canadians is just around the corner."
