Question XM or Sirus Radio?

Now that satellite radio is an option on the '04, which format do you think is the better choice? I know XM costs about 3 dollars less per month, but Sirus has no commercials. Can anyone comment on the programming differences, reception, etc of these two?

I've had Sirius for about a year since it went live in Los Angeles.

Great programming, NO commercials and great sound quality! I don't even listen to the radio anymore. 90% of my in car listening is Sirius Radio.

I've got XM, but I believe that you can't go wrong with either service.

I believe that XM has more channels than Sirius (100 versus 60....though I might be wrong about this) and the sound is crystal clear.

I wouldn't be concerned about the issue of commercials on XM. Only some of the XM channels have commercials, and even on those the time devoted to commercials is much less than what you find on a typical radio station.

As someone who plays the market with Sirius' stock (SIRI), I encourage everyone to use their product.

Thank you!

Sirius has 100 channels as well, and as far as I am concerned, well worth the 3 bucks a month over XM..
