We canceled back in October and they wouldn't do jack. Our bill at the time was around $180 and we have been with them since 2000. They recommended we reduce our programming package if we wanted to save money. So we canceled. Since that time Ive gotten numerous emails, phone calls and...

yup every channel is to be announced

I'm having the same issues.

It is a brilliant business move. Buy the debt refuse to give them any conditions on refinancing it when it comes due. Make them declare bankruptcy. Buy up all the assets and you have XM/Sirius without any of the debt. Profit

On XM there never was a "better" stream from what I remember that was just a Sirius thing.

Slacker for music....You can buy a stand alone player or download the app to the Blackberry. The music service itself is free. However the free service is limited to only letting you skip 6 songs an hour which shouldn't be a big deal for most people. And there is like one 30 second...

XM can kiss my ass. I bought XM originally just for Opie and Anthony. I even paid the extra $2 for them when they started. Then I discovered all this great music. Since the merger the music channels have been garbage. I do not want to listen to people talk I want to hear music. Octane is...

I stopped buy BR discs. The $25-30 is just to much. We got netflix for the streaming to the 360 and just rent BR movies from them now.

So then nothing has changed since the PS3 launched :cool: Its a great blu-ray player though. I have not played a single online game with the PS3.

Here is what I would pick up just off the top of my head. Fallout 3 Gears of war 2 Mass Effect Bioshock Saints Row 2 in my opinion is a much better game then 1 and GTA4 Madden 09 is a lot better looking then 08 but feature wise its just more of the same. I'd also pick up the original Gears...

I know this is about 2 weeks late but I love Saints Row 2. I actually like it better then GTA 4. It is so over the top and the missions are a lot easier since they let you start at check points instead of restarting a 15 minute mission over.

I'm surprised Charlie is giving up at the supreme court and they didnt put out a press release saying they were appealing to the galactic senate. Also is this the first court case Dish has ever lost?

Exactly and with all the issues with Sirius radios not being able to sub to the Best of service am I the only one that seems to think they are pushing people towards Xm radios and the XM side of the business?

I think he is referring to being able to have a Sirius radio and an xm radio and being able to pay the family plan price for one of them so $12.99 for one and $6.99 for the other. Instead of paying $12.99 each right now.

Right now if you had to make a choice it seems XM with best of Sirius is the way to go. You get pretty much everything that is desirable on Sirius minus the music which is all going to be the same soon anyway. Plus XM has that new portable coming out that can record 5 channels at once.
