    Successful Launch and deployment of SXM-7

    Will this more powerful and new satellite improve the bit rate and sound quality of the music channels?

    Opie Fired by SiriusXM

    Thanks, I was looking through my Sirius radio channels shortly after it happened and 103 was not there. Is it 206 still on the Sirius side? I will check again later when I have a chance. In related news, I saw a post from Anthony Cumia that there is apparently negotiations ongoing to get Opie...

    Opie Fired by SiriusXM

    So without O&A or O&J or just plain O, why is this still considered a premium channel that you have to pay extra for on the Sirius side of the platform?

    SIRIUSXM to Launch All Beatles Channel

    Have been listening and becoming more disenchanted with it each day. I am ok with the studio and live material, solo material, snippets of interviews. What really sucks is the covers. How can you take perfection, F up the tempo and lyrics and play it on their channel? No real Beatles fan wants...

    The Opie And Anthony Show

    I am a fan of the show and usually will put it on when in my XM equipped car. The part that bothers me about this whole situation is 1) what he said is debatable as racist, calling someone an animal who resorts to violence in our "civilized" society hardly qualifies as racist but in today's...

    Hello Billy Joel channel Bye Bye Big Bands

    And in my opinion, none of these artists, save Elvis, have a catalog that can support a channel all by itself. I have tuned to Bruce periodically and you get a hit and then they have to place a B side as filler. I guess if you are an uber fan you would know these songs but if you are an uber...

    Art Bell quits SiriusXM after only two months.

    Did he sign a contract? I don't see an allegation that SiriusXM breach the contract so this looks like it's all on him/his attorneys for failing to do their due diligence.

    Just Don't Do It! Don't ever activate SiriusXM. They make it nearly impossible to cancel!

    Have had XM since 2004 and no issues with billing, cancelling radios, adding a radio, getting a deal when I think the price no longer is justified. You tell them what you want, they tell you what they can do. You accept it or or cancel the subscription. Never waited on hold and never had the...

    Mel Resigns

    I must not be as ASTUTE as you imply and I am pretty sure I don't need to buy a bridge. So what's your point?

    Mel Resigns

    Maybe they will return to their roots, go completely commercial free, deeper play lists and jettison some of the bloated celebrity contracts and invest in real radio entertainers to make the product better.

    Just got 6 months for $25 from XM

    I just called and was offered the 50% off for a year. In June I reactivated a radio for 6 mo for $25, couldn't pass up the good deal. My contention has been that XM is overpriced and 50% off is the right amount for pay radio. When they stop offering it I will cancel for real.

    Is 30 bucks for another 6 months worth it??

    6 mo for $30 is worth it. $15/mo regular pricing not worth it.

    Does Sirius XM offer internet only account?

    Call them to cancel and you will be offered a multitude of deals at a greatly reduced price to stay. I get the $77/year deal every August and the day they don't offer it is the day I cancel for good.

    About to renew

    After getting dozens of letters for my 1 deactivated radio I broke down and took the 6 mo for $25 offer. In December they can re-up this radio for the same deal or I will deactivate it again until the next letter comes.....XM has gotten way to expensive over the years.

    Use of Dish dish with Sirius Satellite Radio

    You could use it to mount a Sirius magnetic antenna to it and then run the wire to your unit. That is what I did with my Dish antenna, so technically I am not using the dish but only as a piece of metal high up for the XM antenna.

    FCC rejects Liberty Media bid for Sirius XM control

    Raising their stake from 40 to 45%.....He can just open his wallet and pull out some pocket change at the current stock price of SXM.:D

    MLB NHL on Sirius

    Apparently they were exclusive deals signed by XM and even after the merger there was contract language preventing them from being added to the Sirius subs.

    Patrice O'Neal

    http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/30/arts/patrice-oneal-boisterous-comedian-dies-at-41.html Patrice made numerous appearances on O&A throughout the years. He was not everyone's cup of tea but he had a way of seeing issues and commenting on them that made me laugh.

    Sirius XM to raise price for basic package

    Cost of Additional Radios in January?

    If they go up in price above their current levels to any extent they are all but assuring bankruptcy. No one in their right mind will pay $20/mo for the crap product they are currently putting out. It's time for the justice department to bust them apart as a monopoly with someone clearly...

    I got a listen free thing for siriusxm in mail.

    I just got the letter for my factory Sirius radio but have never gotten any thing for my 2 XM radios that I removed from my account. Using the free 2 weeks on the Sirius radio until they cut it off again. The letter also included the 5 mo for $25 offer that I have yet to take them up on.
