Oh! So you were replying to DWS44. I saw you quoted me for some reason, which was very confusing. I already stated above that I still had the Holly channel on my Echoes. DWS44 has the Mostly Music package.Its integrated..you should be able to create a station based on a artist with your platinum plan...nice little work around for that station you are missing
Didn't you lose you new age lava lounge channel?Oh! So you were replying to DWS44. I saw you quoted me for some reason, which was very confusing. I already stated above that I still had the Holly channel on my Echoes. DWS44 has the Mostly Music package.
Mrs. Foxbat has a 2018 Buick with the SiriusXM subscription. I have the SiriusXM App on my phone and so I can stream SiriusXM to my car’s audio system with better fidelity than what I would get if we paid for two vehicles.Could you explain that a tad more? Her sub is for where exactly? Some vehicle other than the Escape? And this allows you to stream through your phone? (I think my sub does this, but as I said above, I don't use the SiriusXM app.)
I know of no such channel. Are you referring to the Spa channel? I never lost that except temporarily (3 months?) when they replaced it with the boring Calm channel.Didn't you lose you new age lava lounge channel?

Interesting concept. So, if SiriusXM swaps out the Spa channel for the sleep-inducing Calm channel again, I can still get to the Spa channel via streaming?If you lose it again..simply create a channel based on a artist on that channel
Close to itInteresting concept. So, if SiriusXM swaps out the Spa channel for the sleep-inducing Calm channel again, I can still get to the Spa channel via streaming?
There are at least 150 different channels. Are none to your liking?Just not worth it when I can get a better variety of music and not the same repetatitive crap they're playing now, there were a lot of songs and artist I used to like but with SXM I hear the same music from same artist just about everyday. Goodbye SiriusXM.
They don't offer more than 1 stream at a time that I know of ....That thought never occurred to me because I subscribe via my car radio. I suppose streaming quality is better, so that could be one reason.
If you only subscribe to one stream, it would be interesting to know what other devices, besides Echoes, allow multiple streams. Can you stream to multiple PC's or in your case multiple phones? I doubt that. Amazon may have an agreement with SiriusXM that allows all Echoes on one account, e.g. to enable their "play everywhere" command.
Does anybody else with a streaming sub have any other smart speaker they can try?
Yes, I am a Prime member and yes I do occasionally listen to something on Prime Music. But I do not subscribe to Prime Music Unlimited, so I get to "enjoy" their commercials.TheKrell, have you tried Amazon Prime Music? I assume that you are a Prime Member given you have Echoes. Prime Music has a Spa radio channel which has a pretty comparable collection of ambient instrumentals.
I don’t have Unlimited, just the entry-level Prime subscription. I can’t recall hearing commercials on the Prime Radio Channels. Nothing like Pandora. And it has never announced itself like SiriusXM does twice a hour. I wonder if that’s because I’m using the HEOS system to play the stream?Yes, I am a Prime member and yes I do occasionally listen to something on Prime Music. But I do not subscribe to Prime Music Unlimited, so I get to "enjoy" their commercials.
Welp! Guilty as charged, it’s what I play at night to help me go to sleep! If I’m driving I’m listening to Classic Rewind, Classic Vinyl, Deep Tracks, or some similar 70s / 80s mix.New Age music is supposed to be appropriate as a primary activity. Not background music. Not ambient. Not "elevator music". And definitely not sleep inducing!
Been a Sirius subscriber for nearly 20 years now and generally been happy with the service over the years. I'm not even one to b!tch too much over the price, and defended their worth even while so many folks extoll the virtues of the other streaming music services. That said, they pissed me off last two days. SiriusXM Holly has always been one of my favorite holiday stations. It came on all my radios on channel 105 this year and has been working fine since they turned it on. Well, yesterday, I couldn't get the channel in my Dad's Cadillac while I was out with him (he's been a subscriber even longer than me). I didn't have time to putz with it, though. Today, I get in my vehicle, and I don't have it either. Apparently they have decided mid-season to remove the channel from the "Mostly Music" package that we subscribe to.
If you aren't going to offer a channel, that's one thing, but to turn ON your most popular Christmas channel (like you have for the past however many years), then arbitrarily turn it back off from a particular package two weeks before Christmas...that's just a pure d!ck move, IMO.
