SIRIUS Satellite Radio - Choose A Plan

I didn't realize this when Deepak and I talked about it last Sunday, but the Sirius Satellite Radio Lifetime Subscription is for the life of your receiver, not for your life. If I did the math right, that means that if you keep your receiver 3.2 years you break even. Longer than that, and you are ahead.

I thought the lifetime subscription was for my lifetime. Oh well, if it sounds too good to be true...

Even though I have XM because the equipment and service better meets my needs, by all means, if you are looking to take the sat radio plunge look over both companies, their programming and receivers carefully before drawing any "confusions". Please don't take my word alone for it, but you certainly can consider how happy I am with the XM service and equipment.

Both XM and Sirius have their place and the satellite radio market will only really be healthy if there is choice. Oh, don't forget that somewhere down the line, new receivers will have to work with both; but from my best sources, that's about 2 years off.
