finally

 

As an XM listener, I don't see much on the Sirius "Best of" list that I'd go for - except the NFL stuff.

NBA is on XM? Never heard the ads for it.

 

Being a disc jockey, I'd like to catch Howard Stern.

 

"As part of "Best of Both" programming, most current XM customers will continue to receive their existing XM service, and be able to obtain select SIRIUS programming. Likewise, most current SIRIUS customers will continue to receive their existing SIRIUS service and be able to obtain select XM programming. In addition to their existing service, SIRIUS and XM subscribers will be able to purchase the following channels"

My understanding is that we will get merged content such as Sirius' Radio Margaritaville, but we will have to pay an additional fee for premium channels that were once Sirius exclusive such as NFL, Playboy, Howard Stern, etc.

 

XM has always had a better lineup than sirius

 

Always liked Howard, but Opie & Anthony are definitely funnier.

 

DMZ...what channel are O&A on?

 

O&A are on 202

my vote's with Howard.

 

Sirius is crap. I have no idea why people have been so hard up for them to merge with XM. I just hope Karmazin doesn't ruin XM the way he has Sirius.
