    Six channels wouldn't get it for me. Perhaps I ll see about the flat fee for one year. Perhaps they still have that.

    Every year when it’s time to renew, I call them to “check on how much it is to renew”. The. I “get offended”, ask for the cancellation department, and get the same exact package I had for $70 for the next year. It’s a game.

    I agree that they are getting to be more like regular radio stations. If I listen to the same station for 5 hours, I’ll hear songs 4-5 times. It mostly happens on the ones that play newer music. I change the channel a lot more often than I used to.

    Xm is definitely a joke now days, been a member for about 12yrs, they raise the price without no notice, signal goes out have to refresh some channels repeat the same music all day long~but it beats the local radio stations lol

    So why do they feel the need to dick over their longtime subscribers? Yeah I get that you can just cancel and renew at a cheaper rate. Or get a cheap rate if you threaten to cancel. Seems like they're just seeing how much they can squeeze you for. I dunno they just really left a sour taste in my mouth after that.

    I listen to a wide variety of music genres. Depends on my mood, time of day etc. Among my favorite channels are Frank's Place, 70s and 80s, All the classic rock and mellow music formats.
    Also classic country. I used to enjoy Willie's Roadhouse but they play the same stuff over and over. Also too much cornball hillbilly tunes.

    Exactly. Check out I Heart Radio if you have unlimited data.
    Lots of stuff there.

    They did the same thing to me when I cancelled it last month.

    With everything else available it has become irrelevant.
