they both have good and bad points. i have sirius in my truck and my wife has xm in her cr-v. xm, generally speaking, has more channels that we would listen to, but a few of their channels have let in a lot of comercials and ads. while i dont notice this at all with sirius but their lineup isnt as impressive to me.

d/l FTW!!!1!1

I think the Sq is better on XM but as far as channels and music its a toss up but talk radio i do like on sirius

They will be merging in the coming months, just waiting for the SEC to approve it iirc.

And the pricing structure is going to change as well. No more 12.95 a month.

We had sirius in the install bay when i was an installer, and I loved it. Sirius = win.

My dad, mom, and myself all have XM. My dad and I have the pioneer Inno which is a wonderful device. I really like XM but then I've never really listened to Sirius so my opinion is pretty bias. I love to listen to Squizz, Lucy, Ethel, The Move, BPM, and XM Chill. Probably my favorites right there.

Say I get XM and the thing for my Pioneer radio to control it. When they merge will it still work or should I just wait?

From what I've heard, all the existing hardware will still work.
