I could live without T.V. before living without my Sirius subscription.

I drive around New England for my job. Sirius is soooo important to me. Doesn't matter where I go, i always know what's on, what channels are worthwhile, and which are shit.

What package are you thinking about? I'm on what is now the 'Sirius only' package. Come college football season I may upgrade to get XM Sports for ACC Football

I had Sirius and I loved it. But sadly, I had to cancel it because I didnt have the money.

I don't know how I ever lived without SIRIUS all these years. I now have it and love it! My local "oldies" station recently added a slew of 80's songs to their roster and I divorced from them that very day. SIRIUS has oldies by year (50's-60's-70's) AWESOME!

Same. Switch "Sirius" with "XM" (even though they're basically one in the same at this point).

Same here too.

I could not live without it. I had a radio break and didn't really have the funds to go out and buy a new one, so I thought I was going to have to cancel. They offered me a free one and a refund on the lost service, great customer service.

Between Stern and commercial free music, it cannot be beat.

What I can't stand about XM nowadays is how they've really gone away from the "no commercials" thing that was such a big selling point for me in the beginning. The comedy stations up in the 150 range (on the XM tuners) are the worst. They're still nowhere near standard radio as far as how many commercials they air, but it sucks that they're there at all. I hate when I go to run a short errand, and commercials take up the entire drive to my destination.

[Psychonaut]

Yeah Sirius only does commercials on the non-music stations. Not the end of the world because there are so few breaks (at least on Stern).

I had XM on my 05 Acura TL when I bought it new in 05 and had it for a few years. I stopped paying for it since I don't really listen to it, and the AQ was not the same. I did like the Top 20 songs, and Hip Hop stations.

Sirius, Cant live without it

Eventually will get that Mirge radio or whatever it is called

[CobraComander]

XM for 5 years...Opie and Anthony and the comedy channel get me through the crappy traffic in D.C.

The merge requires subscriptions to both services - it was good when each company's stations were being carried seperately but now pretty much all music channels are under one brand and the only things you can get solely on XM or Sirius is sports programming and special interest programming, it doesn't have much value to 70%+ of the subscribers to each service.

You can get the Best of XM or the Best of Sirius. There are also a la carte options.

You don't have to get full-fledged subscriptions to one or both.

[phlydude]

I don't need the "Merge" to get them - my old 5 yr old Sky-Fi can get the Best of Sirius but won't contain all the channels compared to if you have subscriptions to both services

[Forrestandjen07]

its all about sports with the mirge
