Our 3 month free trial ends this month.  XM is offering a one yr sub for $79.95 plus taxes.

I think I'll stick with free OTA radio!
FTA: Openbox S9, 33" dish on Stab 90 HH, Avenger PLL LNB.  Spare 33" with Avenger PLL LNB.  25" at 30W, GeoSatPro  PLL LNB.
OTA: CM4221 at 35 ft. HW-150 PVR.

Got a call from Sirius asking me to renew.  I told them I didn't want to pay for radio that I can get for free.
FTA: Openbox S9, 33" dish on Stab 90 HH, Avenger PLL LNB.  Spare 33" with Avenger PLL LNB.  25" at 30W, GeoSatPro  PLL LNB.

Why do you pay extra for everything nowadays? They do the same thing with TV.

I think you are right free OTA radio certainly is still the way to go.

I agree with some of the other posters. SiriusXM prices have gotten way out of hand and I was so tired of paying for music that I could already get. Now I either listen to free OTA or I just hook my iPhone up to my car and listen to whatever I want via my Music or YouTube or anything else.

I really like their services, but i think their price is a bit high. Where I live we don't have many radio stations and most of them are country, finding good rock stations here is almost impossible.

I like their service, but hate their negative option billing.  They run your credit card, a month before the subscription ends, then you have to fight to get it repealed.  Their cost is now getting out of hand, since the merger.  They use the "we have to pay more to the artists" excuse.  Sure, they do, but they also tack on the profit margin too.  Ever since the merger, I've detected a more screw you attitude, if you try to get a special rate.  So....screw them!
