I am so glad I purchased a lifetime subscription for $300. 
wish they would brig the lifetime subs back!!!I am so glad I purchased a lifetime subscription for $300.
Those of us who've been here since the beginning were paying for ads. Sirius was always 100% commercial free music but XM had ads on roughly half of their music channels originally. It was about 5 minutes an hour, the same commercials over and over, and most of the advertisers already had a relationship with XM, such as GM.
XM went 100% commercial free music in February of 2004, a year later in April of 2005, the price went from $9.99/month to $12.95/month, while Sirius was always $12.95. Sirius has internet streaming since almost the beginning, albeit at a not so lovely 32 Kbps, when XM increased in price, they launched their own streaming service at 64 Kbps and then shortly after started doing online exclusive channels.

My experience with iHeart isn't so great. Tunein is 100 times worse.Just go to I Heart Radio and look up their commercial free stations (which they have a lot of) and listen to them. Easy Peasy.
