If they do put RM on channel 55 (it IS available) I'll have a reason to extend my "free" subscription to XM for my car radio...

I'll be checking as well on the 12th (probably when I'm out in St. Louis )

Well according to the channel list there's no channel 55 and no RM on the website....

Plus there's no upcoming plans to add the station. So I'm not really holding my breath that it will be added... And probably NOT thinking about keeping the radio stations (after all I still have my iPod)

Yes it is strange that XM has not updated their site yet but supposedly the channel consolidation between Sirius and XM is supposed to take place according to an ad that was in USA today tomorrow so keeping my fingers crossed that it is true.

Well, I'm now officially a Sirius subscriber. I finally activated the Stiletto radio I won in the raffle at Hawaiian Tropic almost 3 weeks ago. Sirius sure doesn't make it easy for you though, I was on the phone for 32 minutes. :o
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

Please tell me that this is true!!!! I have XM radio -home & hubby's car and he made me add the "best of Sirius" so he can get the NFL games -I fought him on this since I hate Howard Stern- but really really want RM - so please tell me it is true (and it won't cost me more :-? )

i'm going to have to switch to xm now


better option after the merger imo

which is makes no sense, you would think both sirius and xm would be pretty much the same. seems to me xm customers got the best of the deal


i have sirius, and have no desire for any of the xm programming now available, however, i do want programming NOT available to sirius subscribers. now that my favorite sirius channels are now available on xm...i'm going to switch

I am loving it- what a morning of radio! Radio Margaritaville, E Street Radio, and XM on line still has Kenny Chesney's No Shoes Radio- I feel like Christmas came early!

Did you have to refresh your radio?? Before I came downstairs to work (7:20am) I tried the radio to see if the new line up is available as rumored & I did not get channel 55????? :-?

all new stations on my XM as of this morning, including Radio Margaritaville. Most excited about channel 57 (Dead Station) and channel 44 (80's alternative) :D

First thing I did after I started my car was tune to XM 55 to see if RM was there. It was. [smilie=coolup.gif]

I was going to go for a walk after lunch and listen to RM but I left my Stiletto home. Just as well, it probably would have been tough walking in only one shoe.

Larry too bad you don't have a TV at home (still don't understand that) but you would love the new Heidi Klum Guitar Hero add -when I saw it I thought of you right away (okay something's wrong with that)-she is doing the Tom Cruise rock n roll thing running around in her underwear!!! :o :o
