Corey,
You forgot to mention the audio quality. XM sounds like muted AM on the music channels and like you are talking through your nose on the talk channels. Internet radio can sound so much better than this. Too much compression. Too many channels. We deserve better. Government will approve the merger just as soon as all the payoffs to the appropriate officials clear their respective bank accounts. Make no mistake, the merger is all about $$$$$.
