Maintiainig 2 satellite infrastructures is bad economics, I suspect within 5 years you'll see them annouce the phase out of one of them, I suspect Sirus since there are more XM receivers and I belive the XM infrastructure is more robust. BUT that being said with Sirius as the owner one never...

Interesting I felt the opposite, I miss Sirius as it played variety and I rarely heard repeats, XM I feel like they are playing their playlist on a short loop.

The difference is AM/FM is FREE you don't have to pay for it, their incentive is to attract viewers which boost ratings which in turn allows them to charge more for ads thus generating revenue. With SAT if they merge I will bet within a few years we will be paying much more and have more limited...

Sounds like same old crap to me, muted and flat. any CD I put in sounds 10x better. Coudl be the XM receiver int he Acura TL, but everything else sounds good.

I am not saying it should work on old crappy hardward, but at the end of the day it is an OS, I buy a computer to run my apps, unfortunately in today's world the majority of apps require windows (and I dont; want to start a Windows vs. MAC vs. Linux debate). The reality is the vast majority of...

But there is no promise that a merger preserves the good things, competition is what helps assure that what the consumer wants survives. Do we think the consumer wanted an OS (Vista) upgrade that needs far more hardware than they had before and wastes 10+ GB of disk space! Part of me wants to...

thanks I put in my comment against the merger. Compettition is what gives the consume value and progress. Look at what happend when AMD was leap frogging Intel the CPU race heated up and prices and performance are far better than they would have been with just Intel around by itself. DirecTV vs...

I had XM for 2 years, then had a car that offered Sirius, had that for 6 months and in IMO I thought Sirius reception (technology) sucked, constant drop outs. But their sound quality seemed better and from a music stand point I found their content to be better. XM has better transmission...

Well I have had the receiver repalced and I just replaced the antennea, Toyota uses a Winshield mounted antennea and I ditched it for a puck on the roof. IT did improve a bit, but I still find that Sirius drops under any type of minor tree cover at times and most over passes. XM seemed to buffer...

I read the articel on the 3 satellites and how then hand off, and I know it says their incline shoudl make it better in regards to obstructons, by my expieirence has been the opposite, I find I get dropouts on Sirus all the time, even when in the fairly wide open, something my XM never did. I...
