XM Listeners Reunited with Bubba

The truckers love this show...I do too but I'm not a trucker.
I agree that they should see increases in revenue. I will assume that more XM subs would be interested in the 'BestOf' than us SIRI subs wanting or needing any XM content...at least until next years MLB season.

This is a CONTENT driven company and it should continue to be marketed as such...CONTENT is KING....and for me its worth every single penny.

Fingers crossed that Mel can work out the debt issues in this current economic environment. First the FCC screws w/ them, now the greed on WallSteet....I hope they can make it through.

Siri/XM Merger Opponents Aren't Considering Consumers

I think Bruce said it best...."57 channels and nothin on.."

Seems the 2 comments thus far are focused on the reduction of the reduction to the number of available channels being some sort of detriment to the consumer????
NAYSAYERS unite!!
I know its an opinion here but I'm a strong believer in the 'Less is More' concept...I dont know ANYONE who can say "I love my satellite radio but man I wish I had more than 30 presets!"
I use exactly 7 and thats between me and the wife.
Why is there an automatic assumption of a 'tighter playlist' ? Couldn't a combination of philosophies produce a...dare I say it...BETTER playlist???
Heck, there could even be an entire channel devoted to Tim McGraw if the demand were high enough!

I'm just so tired of the naysayers not to mention all of the attention and political adgendas involved with this merger request. If we could all just get past this so we can concentrate on the obvious operational hurdles - then we can finally all enjoy that which is the BEST form of audio entertainment available!
