Bob, look at the channel line up. I prefer XM because of their sports. Sirius has the better straight ahead jazz channel but both services have their strong points and weak points. XM doesn't interupt their talk with sports, and XM has a better old time radio channel because Sirius will play hour shows and devide them up i to half hour parts and not play the second half. If I had one I would get XM but that just me. Whey people knock Sirius for Howard Stern when XM has Opie and antheney who are just as bad I'll never get that.
