XM or SIRIUS? Which is better for listening to AAR? |
|
I'm thinking of getting a CD/Satellite radio combo for my man's car.... I've heard that XM edits AAR. Is this true?
Anyone have any recommendations?????
thanks t

1. I believe Sirius has AAR all day |
|
Whereas XM has it as part of a package called "American Left" or something like that.

and they take out the first two hours of Randi to air, um, that other fella. He's OK but I'd rather have Randi.
They also air ALAN COLMES in the evening. What a waste of airtime. :puke:

Cause I heard it's commercial-free.

8. XM is partially owned by Clear Channel, which is the devil. |

12. Howard Stern is going to Sirius next year. |
|
With the amount of listeners he has nationwide, that's a big boost for them. They expect the deal to get them a big market boost, which could help grow the system too. It's getting them a TON of free press everyday already.

14. Even the 2 percent is too much & they don't carry all of AAR programming. |
|
They just carry part of Air America programming. No good.

16. Well, the complete AAR lineup isn't a dealbreaker for me. |
|
I can get it on the internet, and I've got so much other music to catch up on...
