it means its that you can subscribe to satelite radio. there are two companys that offer it right now. sirus and xm sateliter radio. xm is a stronger company and will prob be around longer then sirus. so u may want to do a little resaerch befor buying a HU if you are intrested in that feature.

it basically means that your HU is equipped to be used with the external XM module. pretty pointless if you ask me, that is unless you like listening to radio...

Its better than regular FM but its still not up to par with CD's. Id rather spend my money on cd's just for the simple fact that I can listen to whatever I want whenever I want. I wouldn't pay monthly just to have some glorified radio...IMO

Yea...plus you gotta hunt through the stations just to find something you like, and I know it'll be just like TV. You may have 100 channels but there will always be a time when there's nothing on that you like //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
