SkymonkeyONE 4 #3 January 6, 2006 XM. They had the best, non-commercial variety when we signed up. Katie has a permanent unit in her Jimmy and I have a Roady 2 that I move between our Harley Road Glide and our Dually. I LOVE satellite radio. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebazz1 2 #4 January 6, 2006 XM Radio. I hardly listen to anything else these days. Edit: Hmm I guess I didn't say why I chose XM. I am not certain really but I got it and I am very happy with all the commercial free programming. Good music, it is portable, cheep ($10-12 a month) etc...

TrophyHusband 0 #6 January 6, 2006 i got xm over 2 years ago because i couldn't tell the difference between the two and xm seemed to have their shit together more. now i kinda regret it. i don't care about the music because i have all the commercial free music i want on my ipod. i like talk radio. specifically i like howard stern type talk radio. unfortunatly xm has opie and anthony and ron and fez. while ron and fez are good, o and a suck. i would switch but for 2 reasons, first and foremost, i don't want to make the investment in the equipment again. second, the 2 year subscription i paid for in the beginning ran out in september, but my radio still works and they haven't charged my credit card again. if they ever figure it out and start cgarging me, i'll switch. i'll also switch if sirius offers to trade xm equipment for their equipment.

lawrocket 3 #7 January 6, 2006 I got my wife a Sirius Radio system for her birthday in November. She loves it. She really likes the "Coffeehouse" station, and I enjoy it, too. But, I got it so she could listen to Howard Stern. Turns out, she really loves, anyway. But what I really enjoy are the blues station, NHL Hockey, and Football on the radio. I got the home docking station to that we can listen to it at home, which has helped since our little flood at home knocked out the satellite TV connections. Sirius is a great buy!

BigSky 2 #8 January 6, 2006 I got sirius and there is no turning back for me now. I live in Montana and drive a lot. My home dropzone is three hours away and every weekend im constantly trying to tune in bulls**t stations. Well not anymore! I like the Maxium channel and of course all the sports. It is without doubt the best thing since sliced bread. Oh ya I have the sportster with an FM transmitter. and from one spot it will work on all my stereos. The one in the hottub, the bedroom, the home theater. How cool is that“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed.

Miami 0 #11 January 6, 2006 Sirius is what we have...when we were looking at the two it was Howard Stern that pushed us off the fence to Sirius. Very happy with it so far!Miami Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hambone 0 #13 January 6, 2006 I went with XM because of the number of subscribers, i think that it is going to be a race to the finish and one will eventually drive the other one out. Or maybe not i don't know. Either way i liked the units better and i liked the service better, some of the music stations are better and they ahve gotten much better about not cycling music as much as they used to. it used to be that you would hear a song on the top 20 station then a couple months later on another station then a couple of months later on another station then it would just fall out of hte play list. Its good, i still listen to terrestrial radio a good bit in the mornings, but i love to have XM when on trips or going to the DZ.Yeah...You need to grow up. -Skymama Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ECoastSurfer 0 #16 January 8, 2006 Had XM first years ago and never listened to FM again. After selling the vehicle with the radio in it, I'm now with Sirius mostly for Howard but I cant stand FM. Commercials are constant, the DJ's are all the same and they suck. Satellite has opened a door to escape the rule of the FCC and I will never listen to FM again.

slotperfect 7 #18 January 8, 2006 I'm an XM subscriber. I have a Roady2 in my car and I love it! XM just expanded its channel lineup for the new year as well. I also stream XM radio channels over my internet connection wherever I happen to be. I listen to it a lot that way.Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nate_1979 9 #19 January 9, 2006 Sirius kicks ass.. Went with them becuause when XM came out, you still had comercials... i dont like comercials, so I decided to wait for Sirius and not deal with them... kenwood also has contract with Sirius, and I like kenwood stuff in my car.. If you dont have satelite radio, you are missing out IMO... FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

labrys 0 #20 January 9, 2006 They both have commercial talk channels and non-commercial music streams now. I ended up with the best of both worlds... I went with Sirius because I prefered their talk channels over XM. I liked XM's music channels better, but because I don't listen to music as often in my car they came in second.. A while back DirecTV replaced their music channels with XM music..so now I have both Sirius and XM at home and Sirius in my car Owned by Remi #?
