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.
I also tied her account to the home HEOS account so we have access to the SiriusXM streams through our Denon AVR and Home 150 smart speakers.
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.
Thats the one
If you lose it again..simply create a channel based on a artist on that 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?
I just Increased my mobile data plan, Today, my renewal notice for SXM came in, they're trying to charge me regular $23/month rate.
I think it's time to not renew anymore. 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.

There are at least 150 different channels. Are none to your liking?
My problem is different; I only listen to one channel! Fortunately, Spa is not repetitive. Their playlist period (before repetition) has got to be hours if not days. They do (did?) require negotiation to get their best deal. I just tell them I listen to only one channel, so more than $5/mo is not worth it.
They don't offer more than 1 stream at a time that I know of ....
The way I get around it is when the 2nd stream comes on (it happens if someone at home turns it on and I have it on at work as well) I just tell it to turn back on and it will stream both.
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.
My Echoes sometimes accidentally give me the Spa channel on Amazon. But I do not agree that this is comparable to the Spa channel on SiriusXM. Spa on Amazon I would indeed call "ambient", which to me is sleep-inducing! 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!
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.

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.
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.
Holly was in free service that came to an end. The SiriusXM site shows Holly is not available in the Music Showcase package. (Formally Mostly Music)
