I had seen a comparison chart somewhere for the two. Search maybe you can find it on the net. I've only have experience w/ Sirius and I have no complaints. I especially like the fact that they got Howard Stern, Shade45, NFL & NBA radio.

Sirius is awesome, it has the adult programing, as well as the a lot of kid friendly programing. My wife and I love it.

I don't have any experience with XM, but I have had Sirius for about a year now, and I'll never go back to being without it. I am perfectly happy with the mix of programming that they offer. I haven't sampled ALL their stuff, because I've settled in on what I want to listen to and punched in the buttons. Whenever I feel like it, I can scan the menu for something different. I could go on and on, but you'll think I work for the company. I hope someone can give you their experience with XM

put it this way, sirius gets nearly 2 million subscribers per year vs. xm's 500,000 per year

to different things sirius uses different sat. then xm. there are more people on xm then sirius. that is why sirius got howard stern there hoping more people go their. sirius was losing money too. you need to look it up that is wat i did.

sorry i forgot i do have both my direct tv has and i have xm in my car. i cant find some my old links to help out more.

here is my point of view

i have XM - if you like dance music, get XM, i have heard so many bad stories about sirius dance music

also, XM has 6 million subscribers, while sirius has a little over 2 million.....which is better?

i have quite a few friends who switched from sirius to XM

XM rules sirius, any day

yeah the parents have sirius, i have xm.

I like both but find that sirius does less talk and more music, which is why i got it.
