The only thing XM has that Sirius doesn’t is the hockey channels. But hockey sucks on radio anyways. Sirius is way better ---

Neither, Get a damn mp3 player and save that extra spending and listen to what you want. I had XM for over the road in the big truck and it sucked guffeys balls. burn your own shit and jam to what you want. Not some crappy satellite shit Oh nOe ! you get extra commentary who gives a shit about extra news stations too. ---

just wait, the merger is gonna go thru, then you can pick and choose your monthly plan on what you want to listen to. such as a sports package, or entertainment and so on. but if you dont want to wait go with sirius. i’ve had it since it first came out years back and have enjoyed it ---

I’ve had both, Sirius is better. Better music, the aforementioned Football & Nascar (I don’t listen to either). Howard & Bubba seal the deal. EDIT: I do think XM has better recieving devices (radios/portables). Sirius’ units are mostly Directed Electronics garbage. ---

Sirius…I’ve listened to both. I have sirius. It gets better signal than XM too due to the difference in satellite altitudes. Also they’ve got great rock and comedy channels. The big thing is sports. XM has NHL, but Sirius has NFL. But if you live in Pittsburgh and like the Pens and Steelers then it doesn’t matter because they all just transmit the local brodcast so you may as well just listen on the regular radio for that.
