I spent about a week and a half evaluating each one, and took some time to listen and play and try to get a feel for it. In the end, Sirius just had the better deal for me. The total cost of the antenna, tuner & Install was less then 1/2 the cost of XM.
However, Cost wasn't really the motivating factor; in the end, some of the stations.. particularly the talk oriented ones, appealed to me and made it a keeper; Sirius's childrens programming and Broadway musical selections, which go over big with my toddlers, were also a hit.
The installation into the Ford Windstar went in so well it's mindblowing.
So far, I am completely sold. I wish they had slightly better sports packages, but neither unit really offered much in the way of live programming to my interest.. however, being able to listen to the Red Sox-A's game live through the bowels of Kansas where nothing else reaches in crystal clear audio made my day
