I took out my XM but now after a week I noticed XM is so much better than Sirius especially with the Classic Country Channel, Willies Place and Americana is way deeper than Roadhouse the Rock and oldies outlets are better also....now they put AC/DC on the punk channel...what do you all think... http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/15593#post-66287 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 15:55:30 +0000 4merlyKnownAs: RadioPages 66287@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ Even though it's not yet mentioned on either the XM board or the Sirius board, I'm sure you've all heard about the FCC approval of the XM-Sirius merger this week. <br /> <br /> I know that many of the people on this board are satellite radio fans because local radio sucks, but that doesn't mean they necessarily approve of the merger.<br /> <br /> Here's my opinion, the latest addition to the South Florida Radio Pages: <a href="http://radiopages.net/radio/xmsiriusmerger.html" target="_blank">FCC Approves XM-Sirius Merger: Consumers Shafted</a>. http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/5463#post-65982 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 07:02:58 +0000 KB1HWH 65982@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ <table border="0" align="center" width="90%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td class="SmallText"><b>Jeffrey wrote on Tue, 10 October 2006 22:04</b></td></tr><tr><td class="quote"><br />Funny you should mention that. I just cancelled my XM subscription because it sounds like you're listening to radio in a tin can.<br /> I love satellite radio but it sounds like crap.<br /> I have found lot's of internet stations that sound better.<br /> They need to improve the sound quality to attact more listeners.<br /> <br /></td></tr></table><br /> <br /> But the difference is, while driving, I can't listen to Internet radio. And unfortunatley in this day of ipods and other crappy mp3 play back devices, sound quality is at the bottom of the majority of the listener's lists. XM's strength will be the quantitiy and quality of programming, not sound quality. I agree that FM sounds better than XM, and FM HD sounds leaps and bounds better than XM, however, like in this area, your choice for FM programming is , well, lame. XM is a nice alternative to that. http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/12805#post-65032 Mon, 12 May 2008 14:58:31 +0000 JLB 65032@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ Maybe the lack of coverage is because of concern that this was a stunt as opposed to something that was real. That's going overboard if it was a stunt, but it's probably harder to get mainstream media/local media attention for a satellite radio show then terrestrial radio. http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/5463#post-63364 Sat, 08 Mar 2008 09:59:38 +0000 Sam Buca 63364@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ <table border="0" align="center" width="90%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td class="SmallText"><b>birdman264 wrote on Mon, 11 February 2008 15:11</b></td></tr><tr><td class="quote"><br />I've obviously followed XM and Sirius a long time -- and can certainly help by answering questions for those that ask...-<br /></td></tr></table><br /> I missed this post......thanks for the info. http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/14356#post-62933 Thu, 28 Feb 2008 20:44:58 +0000 lowell 62933@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ thank you! for the reply.<br /> that is interesting, about the divide<br /> of "group 1/and group 2"<br /> <br /> also: i had to replace an attenna(?sp)<br /> so I do like to keep it in a safe,dry place.<br /> (also: this car kit i have)is a bigger bulky<br /> one,(forget the model #)but, it is cool because<br /> i can take it w/me, so i dont have to purchase<br /> the "home kit" just turn it on, and then have<br /> a boombox - set the preset dial/frequencey,<br /> (it was 106.9,now 107.5)...it is cheaper to do<br /> this..for the few times, i bring xM to the beach,<br /> or camping.....or just want to listen to it, indoors.<br /> (heck, not my car : ) usually the company van, or my<br /> friend's battery....lol.<br /> <br /> but,<br /> thank you again!!!
