Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg as Em & James in "Adventureland" (2009)."I believe in love. I mean, I think that love is very transferable, I mean, transformable. I think that love makes things transform together". -James Brennan (Jesse Eisenberg in "Adventureland").
"Satellite of Love" is one of Lou Reed's best known songs from his solo career. It is the second single from his 1972 album "Transformer".
"Satellite of Love" is about a man who observes a satellite launch on television and contemplates what Reed describes as feelings of "the worst kind of jealousy" about his unfaithful girlfriend. David Bowie, who produced the album, can be heard providing background vocals. The chorus is: "I watched it for a little while / I love to watch things on tv / Satellite of love / Satellite of love"
"But never does Brennan waver from his simple (and morally unburdened) mantra that he hasn’t met the right girl.
Mottola sets his film in 1987, but doesn’t play the period for excessive nostalgia. Lou Reed’s “Satellite of Love” is a plot point, but it’s not thrown in simply for credibility, a la the name-dropping soundtrack of Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist. The film gives us a summer-love romance, but it’s real, consequential and believable – so much so that these characters linger in your heart long after the movie’s over, just like the girl you fell in love with that summer long ago".

As far as international and specialized channels go, satellite may be the better option, as the broad range of a satellite dish can often reach channels that local cable companies cannot offer. DirecTV reported 136,000 new U.S. subscribers for the 3rd quarter of 2009, bringing its total base to 18.4 million, with the average monthly revenue per subscriber rising 2.1 percent, says Dow Jones NewsWires. Two out of five UK Internet users would rather give up their TV than their Internet connection, says a recent survey by London-based research firm GfK NOP.Direct TV:
Satellite signals are transmitted to the tv terminals. Satellite transmission covers a wider range than cable providers, since Satellite signals contain higher quality digital data.
