Vapor 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2006 I am not saying Howie hasnt been big for them. Having him on your network is obviosuly going to drive subs, thats just good business (paying him 100mill isnt). But he has a fraction of the audience that OA have on satillite, and now with them being on terestrial, they have an even bigger audience. They do 6 hours a day for 5 days - 30 hours per week. Stern does what, 5 hours live per day? for 4 days, so thats 20 hours. Im not saying who is better because thats obviously an opinion, but I just dont think he is funny, at all.

johnpace2 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2006 I guess just personal preference like anything.I am enjoying not being a slave to commericals though. Whether it's Sirius or XM...Regular radio now totally sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheesehead 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2006 i had XM for 3 months cuase it was free. i liked it a little, but the "no commercials" is a complete lie on XM. it was worse than norml radio. I like my FM radio a lot better than XM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vapor 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2006 what channels are you listening to? All the music channels are commercial free. Channels that are simulcasting terestrial shows will obviously have commercials. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RadioGaGa 162 Report post Posted June 9, 2006 The company I work for owns Sirius Canada, but sadly...no employee discount. I'd get it for Stern. But not at full pop. Just another montly bill I don't need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teamriot38 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2006 I have had it in my car for a long time now. My favorite stations are Shade 45 and Alt Nation. It's basically the same 40 songs over and over again, like most FM stations, but most are uncut and commercial free. The All Out Show on Shade 45 is hilarious and I enjoy listening to Madison on Alt Nation. I catch some good stuff on Rawdog Comedy from time to time. I don't have OLN so I'd catch myself sitting in my driveway for a few extra minutes listening to an NHL game or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted July 23, 2009 searching for something else and stumbled across this topic. I got mine a couple months ago and very happy with it. I only listen to a few channels for the most part, but I can't get anything like that from the local radio stations. It probably helps that I got a couple months, the radio and the car kit for free. I dropped the extra $20 for the home kit and I listen to it all the time when I'm home. It beats the hell out of daytime TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now especially since you can get MLB, NFL, NHL, and Stern all in one place. Best investment I ever made, and that INCLUDES an engagement ring! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not because of pirating but because people are being exposed to less new music. That's why the vast majority of "artists" that are selling large numbers are all "formula" music.

bdj 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 I've had Sirius for about 2 years now and I haven't looked back. Listening to Jason ellis on faction for 4 hours a day is worth every penny of it alone and i'm just starting to get into Howard after hearing ellis on him. If anybody hasn't heard of it check it out on sirius 28 xm 52, it's on from 2-6 Central. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fieldofdreams 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 While Howard is still funny, sadly you missed the best years long ago. Jackie and Billy West were by FAR much better than anyone on the show currently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sabby47 2 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 I am sooo missing my Sirius right now. My Jeep got totalled and I'm temporarily driving a car with no MP3 plugin... ughhh I never realized how annoying regular radio is until now. Sirius is still radio in the fact that they overplay songs but at least you have a wide variety of music to choose from. We have no Alt station in town and I am reallllly missing AltNation & SiriusXMU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
