I've got XM. I'll probably cancel when the subscription runs out. I'm a big fan of NPR so commercial music with all it's ads doesn't really affect me. XM's public radio station (XMPR) ispretty craptacular.

I do like the comedy stations, but if you listen to it for about 2 months, everything becomes repeats as they don't put enough new material on to keep me interested. It becomes "heard that, heard that, and heard that".

I've had Sirius for a little over a year now and couldn't see myself making my commute without it.

I have Sirius for a 1 hour commute both ways (2 hours total) and I love it. However, I still have some gripes with it. I feel that the playlists, like terrestrial radio, get very repetitive, especially mainstream stations like Alt nation; I really wish they could expand it a little more to play stuff I havent heard in a while, rather than just new songs out. I also enjoy Maxim radio at times, but there are so many commercials on that station and it totally kills their shows for me :(

Also, I just got the Sirius premium internet package "CD quality" playback over streaming internet... i'm sure it will be the extra 2.99 if it really is CD quality. Has anyone else gotten the premium internet package?
