I just got off the phone with a customer rep and was asking her about the Sirius deals they had going on. I already have the XM lifetime deal that I got for $500 back in Sep 09'. I bought a new car and it has Sirius and of course you can not transfer the XM lifetime over to Sirius. So I just...
That is because the NBA for some reason signed the deal with XM and not Sirius before the merger. Even if the merger did not happen XM customers would be getting the NBA anyway. Now at least you have the chance to get MLB, NBA, NHL, and NFL.
How is Sirius better by far? I added the BoS package so I now get the NFL games and Playboy on XM. I can care less about NASCAR, Martha, and Howard Stern. Plus we get the NBA games on XM this year. It just sucks for some Sirius owners because there radios are not compatiable with the new XM package.
I have XM and added the Best of Sirius last week. It is nice to get all the NFL games and the Playboy station is great. Also, talking to the XM rep who hooked me up said that the NBA games should be part of the base package, but didn't count out that it could be part of the BoS package as well.
Can anyone spread some insight on the NBA situation? I see they are charging you extra now over at Sirius in the Best of XM package for the NBA. I thought Sirius owned the rights to the NBA not XM. Also, did XM get the NBA rights for this year? I am a XM owner and would like to have the NFL and NBA.
Thanks, Scott. I do see it included on the Sirius site in there Best of XM package. The funny thing is XM never had the rights to the NBA, Sirius I thought already did.
I will agree with smokey about Bubba the Love Sponge. I used to listen to his show when he was broadcasting out of Tampa before he was kicked off the radio. He had some good stuff including a stunt where he had a girl masturbating on his show. That was just one of the reasons he was kicked off...
Be patient people. I am sure they are working on expanding the bandwidth issues so Sirius and XM customers will be able to get all the channels eventually. Jason thanks for the heads up. I am looking forward to adding the sports package so I can get the NFL and NBA.
