I know they are a little behind Xm, but alot of car manufacturers have been hopping on the sirius ban wagon. So it can't be to far away. Haven't they launched one of their satellites?

I hope XM and Sirius do well, because i have stock in both. I bought about 100 shares of each in July of 2001. But both went down extremely after 9/11. But they are rebounding. You can always go to www.nasdaq.com, type in siri for the stock symbol, then choose infoquotes, and then news under the sirius information, it usually talks about its release date or what the latest is going on with it.

I've heard both XM and Sirius through a set of reference speakers and honestly? You can't tell a diff between both in terms of SQ.

Technology wise they're up there and both have had satellites up and running for quite some time. Sirius with 3, XM with 2.

The only selling point for me on the Sirius is that they have more commercial-free stations that's well worth the premium it has over the XM fee ($3 more/mo) and the fact that Clarion and Kenwood (my preferred brands) have units out for Sirius.
