XM changes

[1inStripes]

It does seem as though commercials have risen on the now music channels run by the company.

The only music channel I listen to on a semi-regular basis is 14. Usually on 166 or 140 just for background noise.

Luckily it hasn't effected the channels I listen to much, but the comedy channels now do have more commercials it seems like to me as do other talk channels and etc. held by Sirius XM. I guess their just trying to make what they can so they stay afloat. I almost have a feeling it all folds before too much longer, which would suck, because I hate listening to FM, unless its for a local ballgame.

Anybody know where I get a sure connect? Mine broke.

[1inStripes]

tss-radio.com would be my guess.

[pvfan]

Don't see one listed there, is there away to get good reception without the sure connect?

I don't think it's going to fold, because there is too much money being made from subscriptions.
However, I think the commercials and such are a way to phase out the majority of their DJ's and hosts... they have too many big names, with big contracts.. they're just phasing them out, and the only way to do that is commericals on their sponsors.

I hope it doesn't fold, Ive just been getting a feeling here lately they are teetering on the edge too much.

they are losing millions each quarter.
