I completely agree with your post. I had Sirius for about a year and a half, I bought it for both music and Stern, I figured it was a good investment because I am on the road 2+ hours a day. The problem is, that while you have a greater selection on Sirius, each station plays a rotation of about 20 songs for about a month, you just have a lot more stations to choose from. Sometimes its a good rotation, but your pretty much screwed if it isn't. The hip-hop stations all play the same songs, which i can hear on the Philly terrestrial stations. At night, Sirius has some really good programming. With the merger I would consider going back, even if it is for 2 extra hours of Opie and Anthony. Some friends swear by Sirius though.

I couldn't have said it better myself.
it isnt stealing if you use the roads, or want the peace of mind of having a fire department.
