What a shame. Especially considering that fact that XM is still killing Sirius in the market (even with Stern). I give Sirius 2 years tops before they are out of business.
to be honest, as an xm subscriber, i'm hoping they don't go with sirius' channel lineup. i started as a sirius subscriber, but when i kept hearing the same annoying songs and the same annoying between song banter from the djs, i couldn't switch over quick enough. as far as the music goes, xm is far superior. outside of stern, there's nothing that sirius offers that i'd even considering listening to. My fingers are crossed that the powers-that-be will make the right decision or else I'll be canceling.
