XM/Sirius Merger Doesn’t Equal XM/Sirius on One Device

Share      

As a huge fan of satellite radio (and Howard Stern), the newly merged Sirius/XM company is starting to irritate me. Now that the merger is over, the company is punishing early adopters by making them pay for new content after about one year of listening to all kinds of complaining and ranting by DJ’s and Howard Stern about hold-ups on the merger.

I want to start seeing XM content on my current radio and if not, at least a dual-tuner option that won’t make me go broke. According to CEO Mel Karmazin, the merger didn’t "merge" satellite capabilities. Oh yeah, and according to Automotive News, we are 15 years away have XM and Sirius installed in new cars?! Give me a break!

I say, if they can launch frickin’ satellites into outer-space, why can’t they give me dual content on one receiver? Give us what we want!
