Starting next week, fans of Sirius Satellite Radio can tune into their favorite shows - including Howard Stern's - on the internet, even if they aren't subscribers.

The Howard Stern Show will be broadcast online for free on October 25 and 26 - the first time this year that the shock-jock's show can be heard for free, Reuters reports. Four hours of programming from Stern's show will be available online both days.

The promotion will mark the first time that nonSirius subscribers have had access to the company's programming over the internet, and it will also be the first time since December 2005 that Stern's show has been available to a non-paying audience.

Sirius will be offering some 75 channels of programming online for $12.95 a month for non-subscribers; Sirius satellite radio subscribers can access the online service for $6.95 a month. XM offers an online version of its service for $7.99 a month.
