I also have XM and love it. For someone who doesnt live in cgy and travels a lot it's a must to have the flames games. Good assortment of music and if your a metal head like myself they have a decent metal station but another one starting up again soon. They also have Opie and Anthony (xm's version of stern), they blow him out of the water.
I also signed up as a U.S citizen, was told more stations were available but im not certain if that's true.

It certainly is true. The US versions are much better. They have stations that the Canadian ones dont have. You may not get as much Canadian content, but then in my opinion, I could care less about Canadian artists.

I have both Sirius and XM and in reality there are a few differences. Sirius has a little more extensive playlist. XM repeats a little more. Also, the DJ's are more prevelent on Sirius as opposed to XM, so it depends on what you like.

XM USA is adding some more channels later this month as well, so it should just add to the experience. But in reality, the best bet is to get the US versions for sure.

Most hilarious thing I have ever heard.

O&A are imitators.

Stern Sucks.

Go with XM. It has millions more subscribers for a reason... great variety, little repetition, NHL games, and best of all, Opie and Anthony (the pests are everywhere... Howie is afraid). O & A come across as "real" guys, while Howie's ego is just out of control.

Not to mention the styling of the Sirius radios sucks compared to XM.
