As a person with Sirius, I'm disliking the merger in the present but am hoping my gripes (not likely) will be alleviated. The fact I can't get best of NHL here sucks, as well they took away a station Boombox, which played lots of new breakbeats and some decent mashups (more bb than mashups which is fine by me).
Basically they replaced all electronic music stations and uniformed them to 2, which makes me upset cause if I wanna listen to some breakbeats I have to go through some really bad trance. It would be like having to listen to Blink 182 and Maroon 5 and hoping your Rolling Stones and White Stripes will come on once in a while, for me anyways...
They did it with something fringe (less fringe than some of my music obviously) by taking away punk stations and such. Part of the appeal of sattelite radio for me is the idea I can listen to some underground music on a channel mixed in with more popular stuff. Although the rock stations are pretty good IMO and aren't underrepresented. Sorry boot da gramr guyz.
But I'm going to be with Sirius for as long as Stern is on 100 and 101, just an awesome show you have to follow, I'm hooked!
