Cheng...it DOES suck. They both suck...XM and Sirius. You don't get all the channels commercial free anymore, infact only a few are commercial free now. It's not like you get more variety, cause the channels still play the same TOP 40 CRRAPPP over and over and over. The channels for classic rock and all that are no different than FM. Horrible waste of money. Stick to CD's and MP3 players people.

Exactly what VBO5 said. I had it and cancelled that **** two months later. My ipod plays music I actually want to listen to.

Cheng, how's the sound quality?. I have the Sirius portable receiver (Starmate), I'm not a big fan of FM modulators but the sound is really surprisingly good. I've only had over a month and I'm not what commercials you guys are talking about 'cause I haven't heard one. Since I can't find a Sirius tuner for my A4 at a great price, I'm thinking of getting XM tuner

I've had both XM and Sirius. I think XM is really good and wouln't think of going back to FM. I do however mostly listen to some stuff that you can't get on FM (techno, etc).

XM is great for road trips - same stations everywhere. They're pissing me off now that they are runing commercials. Thinking of dropping it, except that FM sucks 100 times worse... [:@]
