Answer: GM through OnStar subscription fees. It's a good move. What they should have done with Magnaride from Delphi instead of letting the Chinese buy it.
I'm not sure selling Delphi includes the patents and intellectual property rights. GM may have elected to keep those in the deal. But I haven't seen the details.

And also this isn't the first non-GM OnStar application. Lexus offered it for a while if I recall correctly as original equipment.
