    Satellite Radio Question

    I've had both and prefer Sirius' music channels. They are both more or less the same though. With the merger hopefully imminent, it won't matter which you choose anyway.

    XM Radio Suspends Opie & Anthony

    I think it has more to do with their reputation and the fact that nobody wants to cause any waves with the merger in doubt. It is also a great way to set them up for being let go as a means to save money. IMO, it disturbs me that any action would be taken on someone on satellite. It sets a...

    Sirius Media Player plugin

    I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but it's pretty sweet. http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/SIRIUS_Internet_Radio_Player_for_Windows_Media_Player/1161795698/3 I just found it the other day. You set it up with your login and have access to all the Sirius internet channels...

    SIRIUS Satellite Radio Passes 5.1 MILLION subscribers

    4th quarter of 2005 they added 1,142,640. I'm sure that would have been much higher if there were no shortages of radios like they had. So 1.2 is not out of the realm of possibility

    SIRIUS Satellite Radio Passes 5.1 MILLION subscribers

    I don't think it's too hard to do with x-mas season coming. They grabbed almost half a million in the summer with is usually the worst time for electronics

    Why we have Sirius

    I have to agree, when I had XM the few times I had to call servvice was awful. When I cancelled it was a pain in the neck & took 30 minutes. The few times I've had to call sirius, to add an additional radio & when I lost my web page login, it was almost wier. It's been so long since I've...

    XM vs. Sirius Round 6 ClassiC Radio

    The phrase you're looking for "OTR" = Old Time Radio. :up I started when I had XM & continued with Sirius when I switched late last summer in anticipation of Howard. I'm hooked on the stuff. www.radioclassics.com It is indeed the same programming on both. XM features a DJ between...

    Stern/CBS Settlement

    I dunno, a 3rd channel with 20+years of material to run? I don't think they'd repeat too much. Now if only Dish would get Howard TV! :D

    Stern/CBS Settlement

    Riley is priceless! He's worth every penny of his $200/show. :D I'm going to use his method of asking for a raise next week, lol.

    Stern/CBS Settlement

    Howard has said many times that Sirius gave him the option of a 3rd channel but he hasn't done it due to a lack of programming. "Howard Classic" seems like a great way to fill a 3rd channel! Whatever happened, it does look like CBS was left with some serious egg on their faces. It would...

    Stern/CBS Settlement

    Considering they originally wanted 20 mil & Stern was offering 4, then they sued him for 200. I'd consider getting them for 2 mill comming out ahead. He got them for cheaper than his original offer.

    Stern/CBS Settlement

    Stern leaves for Sirius. Stern asks for his tapes. CBS says "sure, $20 million please." Stern "Forget it!" CBS "Now we want $200 million" Stern says "We'll see about that." A few months later, settled out of court & Stern has his tapes for 1/10 of what CBS wanted for them...

    Cleft Palette of the Howard Stern Show Dies

    Sad news indeed. From the sounds of it, he died a few hours after talking on the air yesterday. Like the gang was saying, of all the whack packers, he was the last one you'd expect to die. Howard seemed to get choked up once or twice too. Everyone really liked the guy. From what they said...

    I wonder if there's a way to swap antenna. Putting the Sirius one on the roof under the cap for the XM one & use the existing cable.

    Can I Use Factory XM Antenna w/ Sirius Receiver?

    Wow, I just came here looking for the same info, except I have an 04 Accord. I'm going a bit further & adding a DVD player to the nav system while I'm at it. :D It would be really sweet if I can simply use the roof mounted antennawhen I switch from XM to Sirius. I've been scouring the...
