On XM there never was a "better" stream from what I remember that was just a Sirius thing.

Slacker for music....You can buy a stand alone player or download the app to the Blackberry. The music service itself is free. However the free service is limited to only letting you skip 6 songs an hour which shouldn't be a big deal for most people. And there is like one 30 second...

XM can kiss my ass. I bought XM originally just for Opie and Anthony. I even paid the extra $2 for them when they started. Then I discovered all this great music. Since the merger the music channels have been garbage. I do not want to listen to people talk I want to hear music. Octane is...

Exactly and with all the issues with Sirius radios not being able to sub to the Best of service am I the only one that seems to think they are pushing people towards Xm radios and the XM side of the business?

I think he is referring to being able to have a Sirius radio and an xm radio and being able to pay the family plan price for one of them so $12.99 for one and $6.99 for the other. Instead of paying $12.99 each right now.

Right now if you had to make a choice it seems XM with best of Sirius is the way to go. You get pretty much everything that is desirable on Sirius minus the music which is all going to be the same soon anyway. Plus XM has that new portable coming out that can record 5 channels at once.

If that's the case they shouldn't have put out press releases last year saying any radio would be able to receive the best of programming. They also shouldn't have radios that are still in the OEM stream like I bought that also can not get them.

No idea man as far as I can tell the NBA isnt even listed on XMs site yet its in the best of XM package

Well I refer that informant to this press release dated July 23rd of 2007 Sirius XM Radio Inc. - XM and SIRIUS to Offer A La Carte Programming Specifically this section. " Best of Both Packages Will Be Available on Existing Radios Today, if consumers want the best of both XM and SIRIUS...

Baseball which I assume is important to him as a red sox fan, some people think better music, a lot of people enjoy Opie and Anthony. And if all he listens to on Sirius is stern and he already has XM why not just pay the extra $4 bucks especially since if I remeber correctly it was already...

They also had a year to let a lot of people with OEM sirius radios know they wouldn't be able to sub to best of XM and didn't. This whole thing is a freaking cluster F

What radios do you have?

If that's the official release date then they shouldn't have it promoted all over their websites. They also need to change the sites to include a list of receivers that are not and never will be compatible with this service since they failed to do that for the year prior to launching the service.

No kidding I don't see how this is any different then them just adding channels but WTF do I know. I am so pissed about this its not even funny. I really didnt even want Sirius we wanted XM just to get Opie and Anthony, however thats not an option with Volvo and unlike every other car in...

Welcome to the club. I paid $700 to have Sirius installed in my wife's Volvo when we bought it in March and it also isnt compatibe with best of XM. I called Sirius and they told me the same thing and to call Volvo, I called Volvo and they said to call my service manager

Yeah I called them and they said its not available for your radio. And to call Volvo. I call volvo who tells me to call my service manager and he is like WTF am I supposed to do?

When I go online the Sirius with best of XM is grayed out and says not compatible with your current radio.

I would like to thank Volvo and Sirius for selling me a $700 Sirius unit in March that is not compatible with the best of XM programming on Sirius. Thanks for that guys really appreciate it. :mad:

I dont think anyone is predicting doom however when a brand new sat takes a dive at a company thats all ready strapped for cash that is a problem. Not to mention 3 of the 4 sats they have are now broken

Well Sat 1 and Sat 2 pretty much have to work together and act as one sat because they are broken as well. So when they launched Sat 3 they moved 1 and 2 together and they acted as one Sat. When 4 was launched they put it were 1 and 2 are and put 1 and 2 in backup status.

Well they are in trouble if the reports of Sat 3 going belly up are true. They will have to move 1 or 2 or both over to 3s position and that will take a few days. Hope that puppy was insured.

I was on hold for 45 minutes message kept saying due to a high number of calls from people trying to activate their radios :rolleyes:

Well i canceled my 2 radios. They are not coming back to xm after a 30 day suspension its just not going to happen. O and A were the only reason I still had XM. WTF am I supposed to listen to for 30 days. Xms music channels have sucked for over a year. Xm tried to offer me 6 free months to...

I'm not a fan because it doesn't bode well for O and A. As of the last 6 months they have been the only reason I continue to pay for XM. I actually paid the extra $2 to listen to them. In my opinion the music channels have really gone to sh*t lately on XM. So if they get canned or...

To bad you do not run the FCC because they do not look at it that way. They view it just like the E* and D* merger.
