For people who have satellite radio, which one do you have and why did you choose that one?



I'm in the process of choosing and am partial to XM because they are the ones carrying major league baseball. But some one told me they are in financial difficulty. Guess I should go read some business pages...

We got satellite radios for Christmas -- for both daughters, dh and me -- and we got XM. We all love ours. I don't know about the financial difficulty. I thought that was Sirius, but have to admit I haven't paid much attention.

I love listening to the channel that plays tunes from the 50s.

I have been thinking about Sirius. I only have basic cable for television, probably would drop that except as a bundle with broadband internet, it pays to keep it. Otherwise, you can keep television, no matter how many stations, to me, it is all rubbish all the time, all those sitcoms and non funny shows.

I have CBC Radio One on all day and all night and I know they are broadcast on Sirius and that was what sparked my interest. Anyone have Sirius ? Would love to know what it is like.

We got 2 Xm radios for Christmas. An added bonus - we can listen to the music streaming on the computer. We went with XM because of the baseball (but the music is great too!) I just pop the antenna out the sunroof of the car and the reception is quite good even in crowded NYC.

I have Sirius in the car, but I pretty much only listen to music on it. I really love that I don't have to hear endless ads for local car dealers and bars, and the dj types yakking and yakking. When I go down to DC I check the DC traffic channel, which is convenient. We have XM in the house, and I'm thinking about changing out the car units for the baseball.
