I have had Sirius for about a year, and I have loved it so far. I have been pulling for the merger hoping it would make sat radio better. At this point in time, I am thinking I was dead wrong.
Last year, the whole reason I bought Sirius was because of college football. They didn't carry my team (UGA) but they carried most teams UGA played. I listened to lots of games on Sirius last year.
I try to find UGA games this year, and now I find out that only ***tty conferences and teams nobody cares about are on their list.
Then I hear about this "Best of XM". I figure it should be free, so I call up and find out it's $4 PER RECEIVER. I have a unit in my VW and a Stilletto in my house I rarely listen to, but have kept a sub on for over a year. What a PITA that the cost of the Stilletto's sub will almost double if I want college FB.
In order to reduce costs, I figure I will try out a la cart, which was a feature they kept bragging about if the merger went through. Guess what, neither my Stiletto nor my VW can do a la cart.
I am now seriously considering cancelling the sub on my Stilletto. It will be harder to cancel it in my car because I hate terrestrial and I'm too lazy to load my iPod, but if this continues then I think I will be forced.
I feel so violated after pulling for this merger for so long and then immediately they start nickel-and-diming me.
