I loose the signal too much and it has way too many commercials for a pay radio.. which their biggest selling point is NO commercials.. Also when it ran out they called 4-5 times a day every day for about a month,, and when they got the answer machine they would just hangup after it went to record or just sit and talk amongst themselves while the machine was recording.. Now XM and Sirius is merging expect the $ to go up,, and at $14 per month to listen to the radio.. Now if I had one of those fancier receivers, not the factory sat radio, it might be worth it, they do so much more..

Don't sweat the reception issue. Once they merge with XM, they will have access to XM's satellites and orbits, as well as their terrestrial repeaters...which really help out under bridges, overpasses, etc. The combo of the two systems should create great reception all over.....assuming they do it that way.
You think another monopoly will be allowed to be created like the cable companies? I have no choice in my area when it comes to a cable company.....why would satellite radio be allowed to go towards this when the cable companies are being pushed to "unmonopolize" like the phone companies did??

I went on and did the lifetime renewal... As long as you keep it for over somewhere around 2yrs-8mos... you are ahead. There are stipulations on replacing the unit and transferring the lifetime coverage to a new radio and such.
