I know this will get some flames but I just spent a week with Sirius in my rental car and I don't care what people say about clearchannel, XM has much more original programming. Even the S&V review agreed on that. I thought Sirius's play-list sounded like listening to a rock station on FM without commercials (but damn, they probably play about 5 minutes of Sirius promos an hour but I guess those aren't considered commercials). I also thought the sound was inferior but I was listening through an FM modulator so I admit its not a fair comparison. Also, does it always take a few seconds before it switches channels on Sirius or is that just a modulator thing? Either way, I have no intention on becoming a fan boy for XM but I am just telling you my honest opinion after spending a week with Sirius. I still think both offer great services but now I no longer doubt if I chose right for my personal tastes. I would go into comparisons of channels but I think my point has been made without having to ruffle more feathers.



Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you\'ll give and tears you\'ll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.
