    XM Announces 5 Holiday Channels

    Just heard on the air today that Bruce Kelly resigned at XM. As much as O&A would tease the guy, he was a good XM Ambassador.

    Sirius Debuts The S50 Wearable

    Sorry if you felt I was bashing it, Rich. I was having a little fun, (hence the smilies). Granted the fun was at the expense of Sirius' shortcoming in the technology dept, but it was just a little humor there. I don't feel I was being anything like the Yahoo boards can be. And even...

    NHL on XM

    Not yet, but they will be adding one eventually. They need to get organized on the channel lineup.

    XM Signs the NHL

    I agree most sports don't translate too well over the radio. But baseball for some reason is the exception. As far as NHL goes, I would only have an interest in listening to the Flyers on the radio (If I wasn't wasn't watching them, and had to be driving around). But I can already get them...

    Sirius' Curious Car Count

    Hey, now wait a second. Just because I'm an O&A/XM fan doesn't mean I have any less of a valid point then say "Sirius Rich" does in his posts. So don't knock me for my avatar. The proof that XM only adds subscribed users is mentioned in the article. "But an XM representative disagrees...

    XM Signs the NHL

    I heard that Mark Messier's name has been tossed around to be one of the hosts on the NHL Radio channel. Would be nice to have him on there like with DIbble & Kennedy on The Show on the MLB channel. How long does NFL have a contract with Sirius.?.? Sirius took Nascar, XM takes NHL.....Could...

    Sirius Adds Serious Subs

    TO kind of follow-up on this last point made, I just read this in the article about Sirius kind of "padding" their numbers with new cars, even if that new car is just sitting on a car lot. This mentions about how long it could take them to technically remove a person from their subscriber...

    Sirius' Curious Car Count

    Of course if you listen to Howard he says that Sirius already HAS 3 million subscribers. meanwhile aren't they at like 1.8 million subs?? (Edit 2.2?) I made the choice to go with XM a year ago, and was hesitant because of some of the content Sirius had, but recently I've been getting the...

    XM for Christmas!

    I too just got XM for Christmas. My wonderful bride got it for me. I got the SkiFi2, car kit, and the boombox. (She hooked me up). I knew I was getting it, because she told me to pick XM or Sirius (she didn't want to make that decision). It was a tough choice, and at first I wanted...

    siruis vs xm

    I'm in the predicament of trying to make a choice and figure out which one I want to get. I keep going back & forth on which one I want. Anyone got any advice? Here's are a few points I'm taking into consideration: -I listen to Howard every AM, but the rumor I'm now beginning to hear...
