  • New iPhone App Could Boost Sirius XM's Cash [View article]
    Would it stream ALL content to the iPhone? When you mention that it will use the internet connection, it concerns me. I particularly listen to FOX News Live on my car receiver, but the internet does not stream it. It streams one of the fox channels but only the radio side, not the actual Fox News live station. Also, can NFL and baseball be streamed via the web or does it have to also go through the car receiver or stiletto? Some others of you may have noticed that NOT ALL stations are streamed via internet.

  • Has Jim Cramer Crossed the Line with Sirius XM? [View article]
    DON'T CLICK HIS LINKS! He laughs every time we read his article. Notice how a very large numbr of stories mentions SIRI, but when you read the article it actually has very little to do with SIRI. Every media tries to find a way to link their story to SIRI so that we will open it and read it. Don't open his stories.

  • Jim Cramer's Unnecessary Beating Over Sirius [View article]
    Ah nice Gino. I had some respect going for you until I just saw you whored out on The Street.com Couldn't resist the limelight could you? They saw you had defensive comments for Cramer so they brought you in. You saw an opportunity to get your name out there. The Street knew that anything related to this will genrate web clicks in the milllions. I need a shower after being around your circle.

  • Jim Cramer's Unnecessary Beating Over Sirius [View article]
    His Video this morning still says it all. It ticks me off. Leading up to the merger we are listening to him say that the FCC is dragging their feet and the companies are losing too much money, but not once did he mention this kind of refinance as apossible scenario. Was he surprised by it? I guess he was. Seems like egg on his face because he should have seen this coming given his experience. Now all he can say is Mel had to do it this way. Well, who advised Mel to finance this way? Was it someone with just ass much experience as Cramer? If so, then why didn't Cramer see it coming?

    Hey Tavares, You misspelled repulsive. And you typically would not use a comma here...."They need to put spell check on here, because the amount of grammatical errors I see in these blogs is replusive." Other than that it looks correct.

  • Jim Cramer's Unnecessary Beating Over Sirius [View article]
    He DID know about the debt restructure. That's my point. If someone with his knowledge and experience didn't know this was a possibility, then I know I don't stand a chance on having this knowledge for many more years to come. Correction: I now have this knowledge tatooed on my forehead. I no longer need Cramer to warn me of this kind of refinancing. However, leading up to my "learn by fire" experience, I was relying on Cramer's ability to smell this kind of refi coming and at least throw it out to us as a possibility. HE GOOFED. He didn't see it coming but clearly has lots of experience with it because he was able to dedicate the whole "Lottery" show on how it works and how we are all screwed.

  • Jim Cramer's Unnecessary Beating Over Sirius [View article]
    I consider myself fairly educated in stocks. I have owned SIRI for several years and followed the news daily. I focused heavily on what Cramer had to say and used to value his advise. I don't care how educated the lay person is, they will not know about this kind of financing typically. Cramer, in all his years of experience, had to know that this type of financing was a possibility. If Mel's boys knew it and made it happen, then with all Cramer's experience why wouldn't he been able to se it coming as well. If only he had said, folks after the merger and because it has taken this long to get approved and because they are losing money, here is one sceanrio that may play out and if it does the stock will go down and the bond holders will be in control. Why couldn't he have shared that scenario with us. I know he has to have run across this before in years of GS and hedge fund experience.

  • A Satellite Radio Giant's Surprising Small Audience [View article]
    Your quote and main topic of the article: "They still don't seem to have a hell of a lot of listenership." What about the 18 moiilion folks that are forking out money each month? They are listening to something, right? So, overall, the idea must be a good enough idea for people to PAY MONEY EACH MONTH. Sure somoe channels can and will be removed, so what, that a smart company looking at its products and making adjustments. But a brake owner by way of buying a car versus a satellie radio subscriber who has chosen to continue to pay does not make any sense to me.

  • A Satellite Radio Giant's Surprising Small Audience [View article]
    18 million subscribers divided by roughly 300 channels today equals 60,000 listeners per channel. That is assuming all the channels get equal listenership which of course they don't. 1. The argument that subscriptions are down is BECAUSE OF THE PENDING MERGER FOR OVER A YEAR!!!. Lots of olks on the sidelines. Once the portable radios are combined amd other hardware technology is available, do you really think that those numbers will not start to climb? 2. Can you also give us the point that people don't pay an extra monthly subscription fee for those brakes? 3. Lastly, your readership as compared to your analysis can be pointed back to you for illustrative purposes. For example, the internet has millions upon millions of surfers, how many do you think actually read and care about your article? I only see that 8 of us cared to comment so far. Sounds like based on your argument, your subscriptions are falling too!
