Open Letter to Sirius XM: Take Us Listeners into Consideration

YOU are the idiot that WANTS commercials on satellite radio! Ha Ha Ha! That would be JUST LIKE FM! Damn, you really are an idiot!

And suure, even idiots like yourself have opinions... but idiots like yourself don't understand other people have opinions too and are entitled to expressing them. Idiots like yourself attack others who don't agree with you then expect to get to express your own opinions without challenge.

Do you understand what I'm saying?
Of course you don't... you're an idiot.

Ha Ha Ha! You're a real Internet tough guy. Looks like I called YOU and your hypocrisy OUT and you can't defend it. You're a punk and these words will burn in your head the rest of the night and most of the day tomorrow. I just exposed how utterly STUPID YOU ARE.

Talk about repetition! 14 of 16 days... same old song from a huge band with an insanely large discography.

Click that link and type in ANY artist, ANY song or ANY channel... you will find the repetition very, very easily and know why subscribers are so upset with this terrible programming.

I know this much... the stock price has dropped about 90+% since the merger... all the way down to the 14 cents is sits at today... and it has happened by the hands of Mel Karmizan.

Time for Mel to leave.

Bottom line... time for Mel to leave.

DJs talking over the intros and outros of songs is also extremely FM.
Can't recall that eve happening on XM... but happened all the time on Sirius.

Open Letter to Sirius XM: Take Us Listeners into Consideration

Exclusive programming and delivery was the beauty of XM, and now it has been replaced with the same FM programming and delivery akin to Clear Channel's way of thinking... which is dull, repetitive and geared for the lowest common denominator.

Proof: Search Sirius Playlist
dogstarradio.com/searc...

Please, type in any artists, any song, any channel... you will instantly discover just HOW repetitive and boring Sirius... and now Sirius XM really is.

Who Comes First, The Customer or the Business Itself?

I tell ya what... let me demonstrate the Sirius repetitive airplay that XMers are upset by... and this is just one example... you can do this with any artist, song or channel and see for yourself.

dogstarradio.com/searc...

From the Sirius 23 Hair Nation that replaced XM 41 Boneyard
Band: Quiet Riot
Quiet Riot's "Metal Health" Sold 6 million copies and Sirius only plays 3 songs from that album?
"Condition Critical" went Platinum. Sirius plays only 1 song?

This is just one artist from one genre... you can do this with any.
Try it yourself.

Who Comes First, The Customer or the Business Itself?

As far as the Yahoo chat room environment you cling to... remember this... YOU STARTED IT. I am asking you to end it. Let it go. Thank you.

Who Comes First, The Customer or the Business Itself?

The thought of commercial stuffed satellite radio is a terrible option. It would be a continuation of lies and extreme distrust of satellite radio (referring to the conditions that Sirius & XM agreed they would never merge and commercials have popped up in some talk & entertainement shows).

The ONLY reason I initially subscribed to XM (and Sirius for a short time) was due to the commercial-free music. Coming from your commercial-leaning background, you can't begin to understand how much I abhor and loathe commercials. Nothing changes the channel faster than commercials... and I point to the success of the DVR & Tivo to prove my point.

Your model of free satellite radio chocked full of commercials advertising for commercial free radio is full of advertising hypocrisy. It makes no sense. Why? Because even if they did... if the paying subscribers had to listen to the same repetitive play lists... why pay for it? If you are a not a discerning listener... there is no incentive to pay for the same programming you are getting for free. And if you are a discerning listener (as myself), you are not going to pay to hear the same song every day.

XM was a far superior programming outfit compared to Sirius. At least we do agree on that... as based on the acknowledgement by both of us that XM subscribers are very upset, and demonstrate via the Sirius play list at dogstarradio.com just how repetitive Sirius is.
dogstarradio.com/searc...
You must recognize that there must be some subsistence to the complaints if so many are saying the same thing I am saying.

Consider this... I have had DirecTV, and I have had DISHNetwork. If I switch between the two, I notice very little difference since they offer nearly identical programming (which is also what cable offers... the point is... they really are identical in essence). But let's say one of them offered ESPN, HBO and the local network channels... and the other provider offered only Fox Sports, Encore and local public access channels. Continue that they merged and now only offer Fox Sports, Encore and public access, and ESPN, HBO & local networks virtually were thrown out. How upset do you think the subscribers (re: me & many more) of the former ESPN, HBO & network provider would be? The Fox Sports, Encore & access channel people (re: you & Mel) are standing there saying, "I don't see the difference".

Now, just because you never had XM, err... ESPN, HBO & networks... does that make you right to say there is no difference? No. You can try to argue that well, you've got a sports channel, movie channel and local programming... but you are arguing from ignorance. They are not the same. One is superior and the other is inferior. And that is what we have with this new satrad merger.

I can cut you some slack that you don't know the difference, but only to the point that you must stand by why the rest of us discuss it from experience. These are the true, honest and factual feedbacks from those of us who know. This is how we feel about the programming demise. And yes... it does matter to the health of this company if I am unsatisfied and discontinue my subs. If you mock and attack that feedback, you are doing so from ignorance.

As far as Howard and NASCAR... big deal. Who cares? I'd say there are some, but not me. NASCAR is just like commercials... I steer clear. And Howard just doesn't have the same feel since there are no FCC battles to fight. He won... he's off the public air. They won... he's off the public air. And this comes from an avid listener of Howard for about 15-20 years, right up till they day he left terrestrial and right on thru for several weeks after he appeared on Sirius. I found myself changing the channel out of boredom of his Sirius show.

The NFL is the only thing that might interest me... but only in the slightest.

So yes... I do see commercials over content as an end to satellite radio. If you couple it to the high level dissatisfaction of repetitive airplay... it will be buried when the 'next big thing' comes out... like Wi-Fi radio, for example.

I am amazed that as a stockholder you are against the consumer who drives the sales and subscriptions which in turn controls the value of the stock, especially when the solution is as easy as pressing a button to play a wider variety of songs.

Please, name an artist... name a song... name a channel... I challenge you. I will show you either how narrow, or how repetitive, or how narrow AND repetitive Sirius is in their play list with any artist, song or channel. Do it.

Also, if you are referring to me, or millions of other XM subscribers as someone who can't be pleased... then again, you are wrong, as we were very pleased before the programming change and never considered canceling, because we know from experience.

Who Comes First, The Customer or the Business Itself?

Tyler's whole article is about XM, Sirius, the merger of the two, what service was like before, and after, and Mel. And that is EXACTLY what I addressed.

And being a STOCKHOLDER AND... A MULTI-SUBSCRIBER... I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT ALL OF THOSE POINTS.

I don't care if you don't like it... and I don't care what you think.

I suggested Mel take a paycut just like the CEO of Ford offered to do (if you happened to ever pull your head out of Mel's ass and watch the news). If saving the company is so important to Mel... it is the least he could do. And after what he has allowed to happen to the programming... it would be the best thing he could do.

You don't understand, just like Mel doesn't understand... why would a customer pay for something that he isn't satisfied with? If satellite radio isn't any better than terrestrial radio... why subscribe? If the play lists are the same... why subscribe? If you hear the same songs every single day... why subscribe? If there is nothing exciting or exclusive about satellite radio... why the hell subscribe?

I'm not asking a mental midget like you to try to wrap your narrow mind around such an outrageous concept. You are the poster child for cattle people... those with no mind to think other than to eat what ever crap you are fed.

Whether you like hearing it or not, this merged company is as bad as terrestrial radio because it is being run like a terrestrial radio company by a guy who is steeped in terrestrial radio. If management does not change, you can count on commercials coming to Sirius XM music channels, because that is the terrestrial radio way of revenue. Watch subscribers fly out of there when that happens.

I find it very peculiar that you and Mel don't understand that if the consumer isn't getting what he is paying for then he is going to quit paying for it and spend his dollars somewhere else to get it... which means your company is losing even more revenue and diving even deeper into peril. And it is downright dumbfounding when all you got to do is play a greater variety of songs, by what... pressing a button?? You and Mel are the only people that want to hear the same songs every day for the rest of your life. The rest of us do not. Why do you think we subscribed and kept our subscriptions current for so long with XM?

Use this link to find out how many times a day or week or any period of time that Sirius XM plays the same song over and over on any channel with any artist.
dogstarradio.com/searc...

Type in anybody you can think of... and you will see the repetition in the play list. Click on any channel to see their play list... you will see the repetition. It's the same songs all the time every day! You can just about set your watch by when they are going to play a certain song every day! Sirius XM is programming for the lowest common denominator, just like terrestrial radio... and that way is just dull, boring and outright lame.

It just wasn't that way with XM. And THAT... is what you cannot understand.

You should just go back to the Yahoo chat rooms... it suits your understanding and temper better. It was you who bashed me first and didn't even make a comment about satellite radio when you did it... and that is classic text book Yahoo chat room learning. Please, and I mean this in the kindest way I can say it... buzz off. Thank you.

Who Comes First, The Customer or the Business Itself?

cos1000... If all you have to say to me is personal attack comments... by all means... do whatever it takes... and let nothing stop you from shutting the hell up. Use this board for discussing satellite radio.... please.
Damn... you turn this into a common Yahoo chat room.
