What are your thoughts about it? The good? The bad? I have it currently in my new truck. It's free for the 1st 3 months. I really haven't had a chance to listen to it completely. But I like what I hear to far. I'm not sure I wanna pay $9.99 mo. for it. Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

Next to TiVO it is one of the greatest things I have gotten this year.

Here is the best test for you... after 2 and a half months, just try to quit listening to it for a week.

I Love it.

I've had it since it made it's debut a couple of years ago, and now I don't know what i'd do without it. It's nice having access to the same stations no matter where you are.

Have it and love it!! Originally enjoyed mostly music, now prefer the comedy channels for long trips--keeps you awake better! For someone who spends a lot of time in their vehicle it is a must!!! I have heard Sirrus is better for sports though.

Sirius does have the NFL but how many people care about all of those games? You may listen to your team and catch the end of a "big game" but thats about it. Starting this spring, XM will carry every MLB game...EVERY GAME!!! That's awesome to me. Plus now I can listen to the Red Sox or any other team I want to hear besides the Rangers. Also, it gives me the ability to hear a lot of the legendary announcers whose names we hear but never get to hear them "work their magic."

Yeah, I almost forgot about the MLB deal. Every game, for free. Sweet.

In a year Howard Stern will be on Sirrus. My brother told me Sirrus stock doubled once he anounced his move over there. I think it is $12.95 a month for a subscription.
