Sirius XM Radio Q1 2009 Earnings Call Transcript

Can someone clarify the comma in the copy?

Where did you get this transcript? The reason I ask is because of a
" , " (a comma) in the copy. It makes a big deal and I am trying to
pin down exactly what was said on the CC.

Here's the deal...

ON Seeking Alpha:

"The SIRIUS XM app will deliver an expanded programming lineup that includes SIRIUS XM's exclusive sports talk, news, comedy, and 100% commercial free music channel, as well as new talk, comedy, and music showcase channels."

and what I found on the google boards...

"The SIRIUS XM app will deliver an expanded programming lineup that includes SIRIUS XM's exclusive sports, talk, news, comedy and 100% commercial-free music channels as well as new talk, comedy and music showcase channels."

Did you miss a comma after sports? Because it makes a HUGE deal if it's "sports, talk ..."or sports talk". Someone had said that they commented on making all channels available on the iPhone. Is this true? Because if it is - it's HUGE. Really HUGE.

Sirius XM Radio Q1 2009 Earnings Call Transcript

Not one mention of the 3.0 iPhone OS, Not one. MEL MUST GO.

Someone at SiriusXm, get a clue - let us know if you are working on an app that will take advantage of the 3.0 OS features.

That's the bottom line. Because if it does not include those features, then what %$^# have we been waiting for??

Sirius-XM Merger Decision Delay Is Unacceptable

Say after me, "I will NEVER vote for a democrat."

Sirius/XM Merger: What Happens if It Doesn’t Happen?

Hey everyone, next time your boss asks if your done with your work, just say, "soon", and then NEVER actually do it... see how long you can say "almost done", before you get fired.

Bush should be ashamed. Kevin should have been fired 90 days ago, at least.

I wish there were more posters like Dissapointed American. The lack of a decission is 100% BS, and Kevin and his posse should be fired.

XM, Sirius Draw Merger Lines

I couldn't agree more! The FCC is a joke, and if the republicans (BUSH) don't get involved quickly and clean this mess up - quickly, they will have a big problem on their hands - very soon.

That's you McCain! Get ready to defend the FCC's inabilities. I am sure the Dems have already added Kevin to the long list of inept appointed officials. Way to go, Bush.

I hope that this article and the comments will get more press, because more people need to see this for what it is - robbery and sabotage.

Sirius Opportunity in Satellite Radio

The Oracle speaks and sounds like a real downer. He must have bought at $3.80, or gets out of bed on the wrong side - everyday. This stock has gone up, and will continue to go up. Family's want a device that they can filter adult content, Young adults want to hear more than "F-that" on their current radio stations (dc101 in dc) - they want smut and good smut at that. ...and they will pay for it. I know a number of people that have said,"not now, but once they bring football and baseball to one device, I may go buy one of those things for my car".

Oracle, could you look into the future and tell us how many folks will pick up a subscriptions after they announce the merger? Please look into your ball and keep looking, see the crack? Time to get a new crystal ball.

XM/Sirius Merger Still a Long Shot

Duh! Doesn't anyone see that you will be able to get everything (tv, radio, whatever you want) over the iPhone - over the internet.

Everything. Look to the future and think global.

Pass the freak'n merger! (The politics involved make me sick)

Georgetown Partners Records 23 Meetings with FCC on Radio Meger

Buy, buy, buy!! It's the bottom. With 99.9% aboard, it's a done deal! They are just dotting their i's and crossing their t's. The public has spoken and it's time to move on.

Antitrust Institute Petition to Block Radio Merger Lacks Substance

I am listening to iTunes in my house right now. When I get into my car I may turn on the radio, or listen to my iPhone (through my tape player). My wife may then ask to put in her favorite CD, to which I reply, "heck no, let's listen to good OLD AM radio". To which she will reply, "Funny! How about XM?"... As I will answer, "Sorry, honey... We don't have an XM or Sirius player, because... I AM WAITING ON THE MERGER... to purchase one." (Please note no relationships have been harmed during this process, just broken hearts... for watching our government hold my investment in limbo, in turn not allowing me to spend my cash, which is affecting our local economy. Folks are getting paid off (if true) and the DOJ plays golf and twiddles their thumbs and says nothing about a new time line which allows the Bear Stearns to publish, "it's going to happen soon" statements, allowing stock manipulation.)

COME ON!!! ...still no news, no new timeline, and a bunch a restless LONG TERM investors to think that this is all for nothing, given that internet radio will soon be available everywhere... Think about it... when my iPhone can get my local DC101 station (or XM/Sirius) on my boat (over the internet - via AT&T) in Florida, why would I want to buy another receiver to carry around).

All "Paid for" Politics and No Justice!

Sirius, XM: Roller Coaster Ride Continues

I have an idea!!! Merge without DOJ & FCC - Everyone sell your XM shares and buy SIRI shares. Done deal. Done.

Sirius, XM: Roller Coaster Ride Continues

I want to know at what point does the decline in the share price impact the deal? What if SIRI goes to $2.00, $1.00, etc... and the DOJ is still playing golf.

It is an EASY merge and I am tired (as I am sure everyone is) of hearing how complex the deal is to figure out. Not much to figure out when one, if not both, companies will close shop because they can't make money under the current set up.

...and on that note, I have an idea. Everyone stop buying XM, and consumers will make the merge happen the hard way. The government will make nothing on the taxes when XM declares bankruptcy.
