onenybella Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 I have had XM for years, but I was wondering for anybody that has both XM & Sirius which one do you like the best ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylab Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 sirius..howard stern..look at the numbers of sirius within the past few months, its grown huge and almost going to surpass XM. Also sirius has no commercials and is not as censored as XM is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barntotheish Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 Even if you don't like Stern, the programing Sirius has is excellent. I've had it for a little over a month now and my CD's used to get 100% of the airtime while in my car and now Sirius gets about 70% and my CD's get 30...Getting Howard unedited is just a bonus. I would pay the 13/month w/o Stern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montbh Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 Area 33 = <3. I just got it and the "dance/electronica" stations are awesome.I'd say go sirius. Area 33 is a stick station. and you can get BBC radio 1 on Channel 11. Essential selections and full WMC sets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastfast Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 i got xm for free with my new car...it fucking blows..expcept for opie and anthony ...whic to me is worth whatever they charge...all the other channels suck exceopt for the 80's one , which still sucks..very overrated IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fkornre Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 xm has o&a, nascar and the system...other than that i would take sirius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southbound24 Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 xm in the car, sirrius at home (comes with Dish Network), BPM on xm. is the best "dance hit sation", if your looking for a step up from KTU, but still with theDHT tupe of stuff, the System on XM has the better "true house", Morales, Romero, Frankie Kuckles more deep house. If you want great trance, Marcus, lawler, PVD... Area 33 is much better on Sirius for that. They also have more DJ's with that NY personality, as opposed to Alan Freed on XM. Opie and Anthony light years better than Howard so they make XM better for me, but Im more of a trance person so i like Sirius, many on this bord would probably prefer XM with deep house, say radio and Def house.

ericknnj Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 I got xm for o & a. The music is ok but o & a definitely make it worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmg Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Never heard or used XM but my gf recently got sirius and its great. No complaints at all. Plus you have Howard which is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandy76 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 I just got Sirius for Howard. Never had XM, but I heard it has a better portable than Sirius since they have more satellites. The portable I have now for Sirius sucks when I'm commuting in Jersey, but the signal is much better in manhattan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infamous976 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Ive also had both.....Sirius is a much better choice all around.............XM has ALOT of bogus stations..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transitboy Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Got sirius at home and in the car for basically Howard and I must say that the rest of the shit on Sirius is very good as well. You get PVD, Deep Dish and others. Not to mention you have Bubba the love sponge who may not be everyones taste but he is much better then most crap on testicle radio. By the way I have a few shares of sirius and I am sitting on it for a few years. The stock is money in the bag, and easy double in a year or two.

iumma Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 did anyone actually buy sirius stocks?I did, which makes me happy with some of the feedback here. I have XM as part of DirecTV, and it is dissappointing. Especially the dance stations. Sirius' subsrciber numbers are a bit misleading though, since I heard they had to get a million new susribers just to BREAK EVEN on the Stern deal.......
