Either one will give you what you want. I got XM for the NASCAR broadcasts when I'm on the road. Research them both and decide what's best for you.

Re: Re: satalite radio

If you want hip hop and r&b, definitely go with Sirius. I had XM for 3 months before I cancelled it. I hated it. I'd MUCH rather hook up my iPod and have 30GB worth of my own songs to listen to without a monthly subscription fee. From my experience, I would stay away from XM and go Sirius but a lot of people have their own opinion on this. Definitely check out the programming of both before you commit to one.

Re: satalite radio

yea thas wut i think also, i think you should just buy a 30 or 60 gig ipod and hook it up, that way you can listen to the songs you want when you want, and it is free

I have had XM for about one year and love it. The good thing about it you can take it out of your pick-up and put it in another vehicle or in your house.

Re: satalite radio

I've had XM for 2.5 years and I like it alot. I like baseball and it has 14 MLB stations, and the Nascar is also a bonus. One thing I'm dont like is sometimes the songs are repetitive.
