Thus Spake Zarathustra rendered in flatulence. You mean Howard's getting classier?

My wife bought Sirius pre-Howard and not because of Howard 2 Christmases ago. Overall, it's the best Christmas gift I've received since Strat-O-Matic baseball when I was nine.
Losing Fox news has dimmed my liking of it, but it's a great deal if you have to drive a lot.
XM with Fox News and Fox Talk is supposed to be pretty good, and I might switch to it...or get it and keep Sirius.

I can only speak from my perspective, but as an avid radio listener and XM subscriber for about four years, I love it.
Stern would be a turn off for me and I would have switched to the other network if I were pre Stern subscriber.

It's what I would do also. I just can't support the guy.

Ban the FCC, not Howard Stern.

I just turned his show on my Sirius, and it doesn't seem any different than his old show, just more curse words.

The ironic thing is that I think a big reason for Howard's success was the FCC. Now with no adult supervision Howard's entire show will be just one big four letter word. My prediction is that he will lose audience because porn is no good without the pictures.

I bought Sirius for my husband 2 years ago before we took a cross country trip. He loves it and now keeps the Margaritaville channel on at all times. I will be forced to buy XM for me because I liked to listen to FOX news whenever I drove his vehicle. I hope FOX and Sirius get their problems worked out.

Is that what people are paying for, to rehear the Pat O'Brien tapes that Stern played a thousand times already??
okay so there are no bleeps, but you did not know what he was saying with the bleeps?
eh, the bleeps are funnier anyway, IMO.
I'll save my money and skip Sirius and XM. When I want commercial free music I will listen to some of the hundreds of downloaded songs on my iPod.

Sirius or XM? Not a hard choice anymore. If I go satellite, it will be XM.

What I can do with XM radio, is listen to it. I don't have Sirus but XM is wonderful. Turn it on and there is no interruption in the program as I drive. Stern may draw me to Sirus, but for now I love XM. They need to merge.
