Sirius XM's Game Changer About to Rock 78 comments

Sirius XM (SIRI) is about to rock. Several months ago, when I first wrote about the possibility of Sirius XM turning all of the iPhones and iPod Touches out on the street into full-fledged satellite radios with a simple accessory dock, it was pure speculation. My speculation was based on the technological capabilities of Apple’s (AAPL), then yet to be released, iPhone/iPod Touch OS 3.0 update. While researching the OS 3.0 SDK released to developers, it suddenly hit me. I remember the exact moment I connected the dots. I lifted up my head and I remember thinking, “Wait a minute, I think I’m onto something big here — this could be a game changer!”
I can now report that Sirius XM’s game changer is about to rock. Sources familiar with the situation are now confirming that this Wednesday, August 26th, Sirius XM will be unveiling the iPhone/iPod Touch accessory docks that I speculated about three months ago. Sirius XM will be hosting a special invitation only media event in New York that day to show off their new products to be available this holiday season. The invitation reads: “View the new lineup of radios and accessories from Sirius XM for the home, office, vehicle and beyond.” Satwaves received a press invitation and will be covering the event live as permitted.
Information is beginning to leak out offering us clues about what else we might expect to see at the event. Just yesterday, XMfan.com reported that the iPhone/iPod Touch accessory docks would be called “SkyDocks” and they provided a picture with that name inscribed on the accessory in the diagram. They are also reporting that Sirius XM will be unveiling a new FM modulation technology that will be replacing the cumbersome SureConnect system. The new FM modulation technology works off of the car's electrical system and will not require an external wire to the vehicle’s antenna as the SureConnect system did. This technology would make the new iPhone/iPod Touch accessory docks virtually plug and play — even in vehicles without iPod integration or an audio-in auxiliary jack. Other possibilities include dock enabled boomboxes and portable accessory kits with antenna headphones.
With over 40 million iPhones and iPod Touches out on the street, there is a huge opportunity for Sirius XM to bring the wonders of satellite radio to the masses. A whole new market will open up for Sirius XM with the release of these accessories. No longer will satellite radio be confined to only the car stereo section. These accessories will be available wherever iPhone and iPod Touch accessories are sold — including the nation’s Apple stores. With the purchase of a simple accessory, all iPhone and iPod Touch owners will have a full-fledged satellite radio receiver capable of receiving Sirius XM’s full satellite line-up — everything, everywhere. During the Satwaves Radio Show last Monday, a caller named Fred from Arizona, when faced with the possibility of getting Howard Stern on his iPhone via an accessory dock, exclaimed “That could be a game changer!” I agree.

I Have XM in my car and I love it.
I do not however understand how this is a GAME Changer. I see a little potential but not as much as you do.
The problem with sat radio is not that the sets were expensive for consumers so that buying a supposedly cheaper receiver accessory and connecting it to the ipod/iphone will mitigate this problem.
In fact most new cars came with a free satellite receiver anyways.
the problem was that the subscription is too high for consumers and too low to make a profit.
GS sets the price of SIRI. I will not have my hope broken and all my work avg down wasted in a GS suckering. I will not believe SIRI has a future until I see it over the $1.00 mark.
We are seeing short covering today. Short lived spike so enjoy it.
More up possible next week
The end of month product news has leaked already. However, some speculation remains with the Ipod Dock as it may not be released next week.
When the dust clears and SIRI has not reached a buck, GS will drag the stock back and prep for the rev-split. I hope I am wrong and we get to the $1.00 mark. But I will not get my hope broken again.
The .006 float in NOT out the window. But GS has changed the game for the short term sucker play... Way too much risk for me to hold over night,,,
Does it NOT seem strange?
SIRI lingered for months at 30 – 40 cents.
Just two weeks after the NasD 1.00 rule is announced to be reinstated SIRI suddenly starts jumping.
Not strange to anyone?
Well I have avg down from a $ 280,000 lose in my love for SIRI. Oh yah, all love was lost and I don’t trust this action…
Maybe GS is pushing for the buck as a favorer to Malone. I am not banking on that idea.
What I am excited about is the possibiilty that that will announce a pure Sirius XM boombox. One that doesn't require a plug in receiver. I mean a pure and simple Sirius XM boom box!
I'd also like to see a portable SiriusXM Assessory, so I could take an iphone into a basesball stadium and listed to MLB when not in my car.

One or two like it for Stern or other niche content, but the other 90% feel it sucks for the money. iPhone users I know use Pandora and other streaming apps. Sat radio is novelty, not for the masses, and internet radio feeds will supplant potential sat radio subscriptions
Great service
I am trying to save a few good people from being hurt bad in this stock. Until the rev-split is played out, this stock can not be trusted.

But, a day trader does collect on playing a stock on the way up. The trick is to stay out of the risk. I see an announcement coming soon on the NasD delisting. That is risk.
However, because you can not see this and call me a A$$, than you must be a moron. Keep up with the direct attacks and choice verbiage. It makes you look like a smart monkey…

You are officially a basher. Your commentary about the service is beyond clueless. There is more variety on SIRIUS XM than you can even possibly listen to. I have 2 XM lifetime subs and a SIRI sub...The diveristy of programming and the commercial free music has been a godsend...especially while sitting in traffic along the Northeast corridor on I-95. You obviously know little to next to nothing about SIRIUS XM....what happened....did SIRI -DOOM recruit you to be his new bash partner? You anti SIRI people kill me....you put an awful lot of effort into bashing a company you don't like. Just a suggestion...if you don't like it...move along...let folks judge for themselves...they don't need your calculated comments meant to sway people against the service....but maybe that's your job...guess you are not doing too well at it!
kudos for the fart in the wind comment everyone in my office looked over at me as I burst into laughter...
IMHO This news will nose dive SIRI sp.
The rev-split of 10-50 for 1 share is looming like a deadly virus...
BEWARE
THE ISSUE IS
If SIRI is NOT trading at or over 1.00 by September 12, the NasD will be sending a delisting warning letter.
IMHO This news will nose dive SIRI sp.
when you factor in that there have been over 30M gross subs, almost half have deactivated. More than half cancel after the trial, thus the sub growth is inflated since more than half don't convert. If it weren't for the trials/promotions and OEM support there would be very little growth.
I am not bashing the company, just giving my opinion and analysis. I think SIRI needs to try to extract more revenue from their heavy users, ones that love sat radio because they are obviously willing to pay a lot more because they perceive substantial value in SIRI offerings. The iPhone app and dock are good strategies to accomplish that.

not strange to me this was being D-listed for a while when this was still at 30/40 then the news came out on the QTR reports which drove the stock up now this news / I think if anything there will be striving to get this to 1.00 you have little over 2 weeks left and if this keeps jumping as it is then you will see a 1.00 soon enough .30 is not much / so where will you be Siri-Doom when this does reach a 1.00 you sold at .57 did you buy back in at .60? because that is a great percentage your missing if you have not reinvested and alot of shares lost as well if you have just now. I too sold some at .56 yesterday before this climbed to bring me back in at .58 / But so far my predictions have been right about the stock....

Goldman Sachs has changed the game in the short term. We have news coming on Wed about junk for Ipod. I see GS driving up the sp but holding it under the buck.
This is a sucker play and I have seen it before.
They are driving it up and taking advantage of short covering. They will announce the delisting warning letter news and nose dive. GS, Mel and insiders will be the only winners…
They want the split to reduce the issue. It was the original plan announced on Dec 18, 2008. The rev-split will be good for SIRI in the future in many ways.
But, I still hold 40,000 shares original pre-merger. I will need to dump. I will not let GS get any more of my money. So, I day trade 70,000 shares in and out when possible to make 4 cents. It is the safe play…

Based upon the continued strengthening of upside momentum seen over the last week, and the power of the upside break of significant previous levels of resistance around .60, all former projections of near term to intermediate term objectives are now being revised upward by .25. This raises targets for the November release of 3rd Qtr. earnings and guidance figures to 1.00 (from the previous forecast of .75). Potential is indicated toward 1.25-1.50 over the next six months to one year and toward 4.00 over the next few years. Tomorrow I will post further details as to why and how these levels are projected, based upon the sequence of significant pivots in recent months, duration of trendlines that have now been broken on the upside (with little or no tendency to pull back), etc.
All of this is indicative of a strengthening framework for SIRI and upside objectives have to be revised accordingly.
Hence, I agree that a reverse split or delisting warning will negatively influence the stock in the short term. Take a look at the performance of AIG in the days surrounding its R/S if you doubt me.
However, if the business is fundamentally sound (and a conversion rate of subs from free to paid of 40+% tells me it is), then that dip is short lived. Again, refer to AIG's performance in the last 30 days...
Personally, I am currently taking some profits and getting ready to jump in again when / if inevitable dip occurs.
in the 6 month + timeframe I love this stock
$2.00 here we go)

In any event, I don't think GS is an immovable object and I don't think they can stop this train. I intend to take 1/3 of my profits off the table at $1 per, but i'll still hold a bunch.
By the way, when you see somebody at the table cheating, just bet with them. GS ain't that hard to figure out.

All technical characteristics of current trading patterns in SIRI portray continued strengthening and a dominance of upside momentum over the foreseeable future. Risk/reward clearly favors long positions, as pullbacks are meeting strong underlying support and overhanging resistance is diminishing.
And this thread is nothing like it.

My car came with XM. It was wonderful, but I also have a disc-changer, so why pay and pay? Millions of Americans are not employed, and millions more are deleveraging; luxuries will get sacrificed.
I still have thousands of shares and lots of hope for the expansion (and miniturization) of the product.
But investors must be realists. This is an investment website, not a Sirius fanpage on Facebook. Subscriber growth, retention, and sustainable cash flow are legitimate questions.
If your stance cannot be quantified, then take the "Sirius sucks" or "you're a dumb basher" attacks to yahoo finance.
Pandora is better than sat radio
I see no need for a sat dock for iPhone or iTouch. My latest vehicle came with SIRI sat radio pre installed and I used it for free trial, then I let it expire. Service was OK, but I do not need it. I can plug my own unlimited tunes in for free in the car. At home, Pandora over wifi on iTouch rocks, and it's free. I think there will always be a market for sat radio, especially if they have exclusive content deals, but it will be limited. The millenial generation (born between 1977-1996, a demographic slightly larger than baby boomer generation)thinks digital content should be free, plain and simple. Their opinions and behavior will drive the future of digital content distribution.

But, I'm confused as to why this is a game changer when there is already an iPhone app that delivers the Sirius/XM program data stream to my iPhone over the 3G network? This service already requires a premium subscription which has presumably added some marginal increase in revenue from existing subscribers, but should already be represented in their revenue numbers.
I've tried this service through the one week trial offer and found the sound quality to be completely acceptable; roughly equal to the iPod capabilities of my iPhone, and I can receive all the programs I am used to listening to in my car.
But why would I want to spend extra money on a bulky add-on dock to receive something that I already can receive without any additional hardware? Easy portability is one of the major features of the iPod/iPhone paradigm and extra hardware just doesn't fit in.
I believe that SIRI will continue to climb and that it is a good investment. Apparently there are other who think so as well. Holding 40K will help to recover some of the losses and hopefully put you into a better position.
As with any investment, I will watch SIRI and will monitor the business actions. As long as it is climbing, I will hold. If there is a delisting warning I along with many other will probably sell. I dont believe that will happen though. I see Mel along with the rest of the staff at SIRI/XM making honest attempts at building a good strong company through diverse services and products. Also I dont believe John Malone is int he habit of making bad investments. If he thought SIRI was at risk of failure, he would not have made the investment he did.
SIRI long........
I didn't think so.....
Satellite radio is an emerging and important technology that threatens old-school radio and the fortunes of those that own it or get paid by it. Senator Herb Kohl in WI is a perfect example. So they do everything they can to kill it off and low-and-behold, it continues to live. Because it's innovative, because we are sick of censorship and because it continues to evolve.

seeing the market was purly up so this kind of tells me that we are not totally out of the woods witht the manipulation / this could of easily gone to .80 today and hold lvls if we had pure investors more than day traders wanting the stock to go up to 1.00 (I would have to say my predictions have been right this past week from last saying this would go to .70 by the end of this week and be around .75 by next week
maybe dropping 2 to 3 cents like it has this week after shooting up but dropping by 8 cents is a bit much. It almost felt like the early days this year when it would raised to .15 then lose it all in a matter of hrs. I almost pulled the trigger today with a market stop sell order at .68 which it did go down to .685 from .77 in a matter of minutes.
The after hrs is ok at times but remember this has always been more of investing than during the day because of trading issues with the stock during the day

I do not own the stock now but will buy it Monday.
$1.00 will be easy within a month.
Chart is very bullish now.
Unfortunatly for any long-term investor in SIRI or XM they already got rocked or should I say Stoned-To-Death.
Thanks for the article you should work for the SIRI PR department. I love SAT Radio but I'm sure gald I didn't try to bottom fish this stock in 2007-08. No-doubt the Apple Fans will be touting this story too.
