As long as they keep the Jason Ellis show on Sirius 28 Faction, I’m good. Oh, and please please please get rid of Madison from Sirius 21 Alt Nation. Please.

couldn’t agree more. am a current sirius subscriber, and have listened to xm many times in other vehicles. sirius is far and away the better choice for music. please absorb xm musical selections into sirius’ not the other way around.

I’m glad this helps the technology as a whole, but after listening to a three month trial of XM in my girlfriend’s new car, I’ll be pretty disappointed if I start hearing commercials on my beloved Sirius.

They can make as much advertising money as they want on channels like Howard Stern and Opie & Anthony (please come to Sirius), as pauses in the broadcast are only natural. But honestly, the first time I get an offer to “enlarge” any aspect of my life on a music channel, the account will be canceled.

Save Lithium and Classic Rewind! Lucy is a poor imitation.
