I would agree with the music choices... pretty soon it will get so competitive they will both have to have the same kind of music.... just like their parent companys direct tv and dish network.... pretty much have all the same channels.

I will however say the comedy is much better on xm along with the news talk.... BTW who the hell wants NFL when you got MLB all summer long and a ton more games.... ahh how i love baseball... go cards!!

ok, what I have found is that XM comes in like total ass cheese in my area. All the hills and valleys just kill the signal all over the place. I know it is not the truck, because my other truck did it too. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

So the static free channal does not work on me. Let me know when they launch another sat over my area - then I will think about it again.

xm sucks! switching to sirus in Feb. The 80's formats on sirus are so much better uh uh uh yea fartknocker. I like the new wave 80's with richard Blades

I love the XM selection - but I am a trance head. So I like those stations.

Get yourself a Kenwood Sirius receiver and a Soundgate Kenwood to GM adaptor. With that setup, you will be able to control the Sirius directly from the head just as you do xm http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

XM has BPM. Pretty good traffic dodging music.

I had Sirius in my old H2 as well.. XM plays the same **** over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. At least the stations I was listening to.

Soundgate Kenwood to GM eh? Damn it, another adapter I have to buy....
