ADVERTS
I think most of you are missing the boat on the merger. No channels are being removed on the sat side. If you look at the packages being offered - there are sirius and xm packages. Also - there are a la carte and sirius + some xm and vice versa. Again - nothing to do with DTV - just more of an FYI. Read the link below to get a better understanding of the new proposed package structure:

Yes - old news - you are correct. This stuff takes a while to complete. Just as of yesterday - a second democrat voted no for the merger. That leaves the tally at 2 (democrats) to 2(republicans). One final vote will be cast in the next week or so as a tiebreaker. The 5th vote is a republican so the expectations are for it to pass.

ok so for example:
sirius and xm both have an 80's channel.....after the merger they both will still be available....they wont be merged into just 1 80's channel ?

Everything will stay the same after Merger! Not Quite!
Hey O!
In every merger that has ever taken place in whatever industry, promises are made. And as most people find out promises are like rules. They're made to be broken by the people who make them.
After the merger there will be decisions made by corporate managers that in order for the new corporation to become a viable competing broadcast media, then there will have to be programming cuts.
These will be cuts of the programming that are not generating the revenue that had previously been projected or obtained. To the subscribers that loved those programs the corporation will express their sorrow for making those cuts but the cuts had to be made none the less.
Again this senario plays out in every merger or hostile takeover in every industry. Some employees who lose their jobs because of these senarios know this as Corporate Rape.
So if this happens to the programs that you love to listen, just say to yourself, "It had to happen for the sake of the CORPORATION!"
Ya all have a Blessed Evening!

I just got XM installed last weekend.....an aftermarket head unit (audiovox xpress r) that connects via a hard wired FM modulator. I don't know how anyone listens to this kind of setup. The sound quality is awful....fatigues and hurts my ears with the tinny, metallic, nasty sound. XM sound quality on D* is, on the other hand, very listenable. My car setup is gonna get yanked for a refund next week.
