satalite radio who got it

I have had Sirius Satellite Radio in my car for 3 years now, and I absolutely love it. I have the Stiletto 2 model, which is portable, can use WI-FI, and has a 2GB built in MP3 player. The only down side is if you go under any bridges or parking garages, it can't get a signal to the receiver unless you are connected through WI-FI. I also have the Sirius Satellite Radio App for my iPhone, which works great, but you have to pay $3 more a month to receive the streaming service over the internet.

I have both XM in my home and now Sirrus in my vehicle. I have XM because they carry all MLB games and I can listen to the Red Sox and when my stock head unit in my Xterra died last month I put in a sirrus unit because the XM hardware is a mess and getting phased out (so they tell me) so I'd suggest Sirrus. It's nice for when your out in the sticks and get tired of crappy country music and farm reports.
Sound quality is good, with a great choice of music. I'm satisfied with it.
My JVC head unit also has usb inputs and controls for my Ipod and frankly I use that more than anything right now. Between the new JVC unit, new Hertz speakers front and rear, amp, and single 10" sub, my Xterra is rockn'!

the internet radio thing is free now on all packages in Canada eh but its 3$ more if you want cd quality music on it ie its a little lower quality but sounded good to me in testing.Softball wrote:I have had Sirius Satellite Radio in my car for 3 years now, and I absolutely love it.

and buff XM was bought by sieius several years back, its being kept around and they put soem sports on one and some on the other ie hocky is on XM. So depends on the sport idea. There where suppose to make a receaver to get both and a combined priced package but never seen that yet. betting it never will happen as thats then double the screption cash for sports people
WOOO another plus side to beign canadian lolSoftball wrote:The Internet radio used to be free with a subscription in the US, but when Sirius took over XM, they changed that policy.
