I have two cars with factory XM and the two SLKs have Sirius. Plus I listen to XM at work. I'm pleased with the merger of Sirius and XM. Now I have the same line up in all cars. Overall I liked XM better, but Sirius had some good channels. Wouldn't pay one cent to hear Howard Stern.

I hate the dj on 60's on 6, too. Didn't realize it was a result of the merger.

I've listened to XM 60s on 6 for years. The morning guy Phlash Phelps does too much non music converstation. Some is entertaining, most is not. I enjoy the other big name Terry Young, his converstations are always music related and enhances the music.
