Personally I'm loving my new Sirius Radio, favorite stations are Backspin, Faction and Alt Nation. Best money I spend all month.

I'd like Sirius or XM, but not going down that road just yet.

I can't see the point. Maybe for the car, but both at home and at work I've got a pretty much unlimited number of streaming stations available.

During the day I tend to listen to the CBC and I can get that on the FM.

actually the playboy channel is lame, but it's included at no extra charge. I listen to faction mostly which is a mix of hard rock and some rap.

haha, I would imagine that channel being weak. The rest of the sat content is pretty good though. I had XM for a while - loved the comedy station.

My new car comes with 3 months free Sirius. I listened to it for a few days until I burnt cds and got my iPod cable.

I'm going to let the 3 months expire and not renew. I just don't listen to it.
I listen to some morning show on the way to work (FM) and on the way home I sometimes listen to some talk radio (AM), but the rest of the time it's my iPod.

Step 3: Name the thread
Choose a thread title carefully. It should be a super-short summary of the question. Do not announce that you have a question — we already know that, because you wouldn't be posting otherwise. Do not mark your subject with any emphasis like "Need help!", "Please!" "Urgent!", etc. That is just noise that reduces your chances of people reading your thread.

Good title: "Photoshop error on launch"
Bad titles: "Help!", "Photoshop problem!! Urgent!!"
See ?
