It does seem as though commercials have risen on the now music channels run by the company.
Well, after a couple of weeks, I've come to the conclusion that the merger royally screwed XM subscribers.
XM 150 now sucks, the addition of Blue Collar Comedy (148) added nothing and the number of commercials has increased a great deal.
148 is supposed to be an XL channel. Then why do they bleep every little possibly offensive word? Why label the channel XL if you're only going to air uncensored material from 1AM-5AM?
At least 14 (Bluegrass Junction) is still the same.

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.

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.
