I did eventually find out that the cost and features of their download
appears identical to XM.

Too bad you have to have a $5000 box (I think) to receive it.


That $5000 provides something that MX doesn't...by a long shot; approved
weather briefing.


The $5000 WSI in-flight weather box (from what I can tell it's
completely function-equivelant to the Garmin GDL69/69A) is an approved
weather briefing source? Or have I lost the context of this thread
somewhere?


If he's talking about the AV300, it's not $5000, even with installation.
It's quite equivalent to the Garmin 69/A.

Pilotbrief Pro, is about $5,000 and provides briefing services.
