Also, now that the merger is complete, the company can begin advertising campaigns and really focus on moving forward rather than being stuck in limbo as they were for the past 18 months. ]]> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 08:26:57 -0400

I find it curious that there was so much speculation that sales were down because consumers were waiting for a decision rather than buy obsolete equipment. It was said that no equipment would become obsolete; but it really wasn't made abundantly clear. I just wonder why both companies wouldn't have made huge efforts to get that info out if they beleived that potential customers were not buying subscriptions. Could it have been that Mel and company wanted people to beleive that all content from both companies would be available at $12.95/month? ]]> Wed, 30 Jul 2008 13:52:30 -0400

Mel mentioned this morning that they had to raise over 1billion to close the deal because of XM's woes. He said that was the reason he had the stock sell-off that diluted it a bit. Do you think that is the biggest reason for the drop to 1.50? ]]> Wed, 30 Jul 2008 13:01:44 -0400

Your logic is right on the familiarity of the XM and Sirius name. I think a lot were expecting a morph or the two or simply dropping XM. ie.. SiriusX. Mel stated that the sole reason for keeping both names in tact was because of the car manufacturer's agreements with both companies. All GM cars have an AM/FM button and an XM button. It was that reason alone, according to Mel, that the XM name was kept in tact.

He also stated that the upgraded package will be $4 and hopefully will be available by the end of September. He would not elaborate or speculate on which channels would be offered in the "cross programming" package. I think it is obvious that Howard, NFL, MLB, NHL and the like would be the candidates.

And stop telling everyone that you already told them. Sheesh... some of us actually think for ourselves and get info from other sources. ]]> Wed, 30 Jul 2008 11:12:02 -0400

not to mention the exclusive contracts with EVERY major sport.

Ever travel in a car with a laptop and Wifi/cell cards? Just curious. ]]> Tue, 29 Jul 2008 14:02:20 -0400

What that Wall Street article also mentioned that scares me is that the NAB could, and likely will, file an appeal with the DC court of appeals which may be them enough time for the November elections. If Obama wins the election, Martin will be likely replaced by a Democrat which gives them the majority in the FCC and then they will block the merger. Aint that something?]]> Thu, 24 Jul 2008 08:37:17 -0400
