A digital satellite radio system includes a content server for providing digital satellite radio channels, a satellite for broadcasting the digital satellite radio channels, and a terrestrial repeater for broadcasting the digital satellite radio channels. A micro-repeater receives a selected digital satellite radio channel from the content server via the Internet while not receiving unselected digital satellite radio channels, and wirelessly broadcasts the selected digital satellite radio channel in a different waveform as used by the terrestrial repeater but using a same physical layer. A digital satellite radio unit receives the selected digital satellite radio channel from the micro-repeater while not receiving the unselected digital satellite radio channels.
