OK, I now have Sirius
« on: June 24, 2003, 10:33:00 AM »
I have only listened to it for a little bit, but it sounds great.  A billion trillion times better than FM.  Essentially it sounds like a CD.  

A butt load of channels.  I scanned through them real fast and it looks to be pretty darn cool.  I need to get a channel guide printed off of the website.

it\'s 12 a month, which is 2 bucks more than XM.

I didn\'t get the portable version.  I got this thing for free so I can be choosey.


The chick tried hard to sign me up for 6 years.  Which would be a deal if I really thought for 6 years the price would stay at 13 a month (I got a month free).  It would have averaged out to 10 bucks a month.  

I just don\'t think they can stay at 13 a month for too long.  Once their subscription rate gets to a million they will need to drop it a buck or two to get more people in.

I also think that the two competing companies will one day merge.  Just a gut feeling.

I\'ll go take a pic.  It was extremely easy to install.  I hope one day to get a head unit that is sirius compatible so I won\'t need the little tuner.

The little unit is chincy, but it glows orange so it matches everything else and the cost was right.

I am planning on doing a show where we do a mac daddy audio/video system in a car.  Hopefully it will be mine...

Steptronic.  Automatic with a Psuedo stick.

Since everything in the car is electronic and not cabled they can shift gears either way.

It\'s kind of like his and hers tranny.  You can use stick for a while and then when the phone rings you can go to auto.


The difference between the two is that Sirius has less commercials, actually no commercials at all on their music stations.

They also have different, but similar programming.  Sounds clear as a bell though.  Very nice.  I was listening to the comedy channel a bit on my way home and it was stand up acts.  Vulgar as hell at 5pm.  Gotta like that.

Sweet. Both the car and the Sirius. Very nice. What class BMW and how do you switch it? Im sure the manual mode is much faster. Ive been looking for some snazzy B-Mers (I love them to death. Mercedes can suck a fat C***). Oh and what is the price difference between the sirius and XM?

330i, the one in my avatar.

They both shift pretty quick for an automatic.  If I am in sport shifting mode on automatic it hits pretty nice.  Regular automatic is just smooth, no big whoop unless grandma is in the back seat.

Mercedes are for old farts.  Unless of course you get a snazzy two seater.  Thems be pretty damn sweet.

Sirius is a couple bucks more a month.  But no commercials on the music channels.

I don\'t think I\'ll be paying for the radio as long as there are 4 competing stations in my city with music I like.  The odds of all of them NOT having music playing are probably around one time every 20 trips.  If I put that money towards DVDs or CDs, I\'ll feel like I\'m getting a better value (since I get to keep something at the end of the year).
