It came installed (with a free year of service) in my jeep when i bought it... i got hooked and couldnt get rid of it. I mostly listen to Howard and other shows on his channels but i like other suff as well.

Originally: Stern.

Keep it: Stern, commercial-free music.

Rob71 · 02-17-2009, 03:34 PM

Talk radio no matter what city I'm in. Rush is everywhere, but I need Sirius for:

Bill Bennett
Sean Hannity
Mark Levin

80's music and Hair Nation

Forrestandjen07 · 02-17-2009, 03:43 PM

ABSOLUTELY the same reason here...... If Stern is gone in a couple of years, I'll keep it for the music channels they offer. I haven't listened to terrestrial radio since getting Sirius...... I have a Stiletto, so I just pull it out and throw it in the wife's car for road trips etc.

brettallica · 02-17-2009, 03:54 PM

It came with my car, integrated into its console and everything, when I bought it for a free 90-day trial. I liked the commercial-free music at first, then got hooked on some other stuff like the comedy stations. I don't like it as much now as I once did (I think the merger changed the way they did things), but I'll keep it going as long as I can get it for cheap. I really wish they'd minimize the commercials on the comedy stations.

Voted "Commercial Free Music" for their Classical and Film score channels (had XM). Though I found myself listening to Opie & Anthony a lot.

joegs300 · 02-17-2009, 04:37 PM

Playboy Channel: makes for interesting road trips with me and the lady. =]

davidxiphoid · 02-17-2009, 04:41 PM

originally for Howard, still primarily for Howard, but love all the commercial free channels and Jason Ellis as well.

I plan on keeping my Sirius for a long tome to come. Haven't listened to terrestrial music stations for years. Still love the Junkies and Big O and Dukes here in DC on WJFK though.

Diablo829 · 02-17-2009, 04:46 PM

wide selection of commercial free music. And real time traffic info on my cars navigation system.

rebfandan · 02-17-2009, 05:07 PM

Got into it for the music, as the FM choices in my area suck.

DetroitSportsFan · 02-17-2009, 05:57 PM

All of the above.

It's not just your area.

Slec · 02-18-2009, 01:34 AM

I actually won the radio at a company picnic. Went ahead and subscribed because I drive around a lot for my job, figured it would save me the hassle of searching for radio stations.

Re-upped because of Howard. history of Stern pt 1 really sold me on it. I haven't listened to regular radio in my car in almost 2 years now.

olds403 · 02-18-2009, 04:57 AM

Other, XM had coast to coast AM. I liked the program and some of the other talk programs but the commercials and promos on the talk stations are ridiculous. They more than make up for the commercial free music channels. I got tired of the commercials on the talk, and no talk stations on the internet feed so I dumped them when my contract was up. PS. it was not worth the price. I might still have it if it was 4.99 a month, but not for 9.99-12.99.

MarkG · 02-18-2009, 05:51 AM

Originally for music. Now for Sports. I listen to ESPN and Fox Sports Radio 95% of the time.

CobraComander · 02-18-2009, 03:00 PM

O&A
I got tired of the same crap from Howard all the time and sick of hearing him say he invented everything to do with radio.
