XM Radio – a fan’s perspective
XM Radio has had a bad week, maybe even two weeks.
First, the deal with Opie and Anthony, which many people blew out of proportion. I believe that XM has the right to do with it’s MULTI-MILLION dollar talent whatever it wants to do. I also believe that those people who cancelled because of O&A will be back, at a higher monthly fee more than likely. It was, of course, their right to cancel.
How sad if O&A where the only thing on XM that they listened to. XM has the live broadcast of EVERY MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL game, LIVE. It has play by play of ALL NHL games through the Stanley Cup. It has Indy Car, ESPN Radio and Dale Jr LIVE. Cal Ripken has a show. XM Public Radio.  60 Commercial Free Music stations (if you can’t find music you like here, it does not exist).
For people who like O&A uncensored comedy, they have XM Comedy 150, a completely uncensored comedy channel.
XM has Oprah & Friends, Air America, Fox News Talk, Traffic and Weather for 21 Major Metropolitan Areas, Fox News, CNN, CNBC, Bloomberg, ABC, BBC, The Weather Channel, CNN Headline News, CNN en Espanol and CSPAN.
XM has original shows that bring the biggest names in music, comedy and sports into their studios.
I have had an XM Radio for 3 yrs and cannot live without it. Remind again, what does a commercial sound like? Whatever your politics are , you can find them talking your way on an XM Channel. Need news – got you covered 24/7 on 6 or more different channels.
