Default Sirius Satellite Radio: Worth it or not???

I got a letter in the mail saying that Sirius is offering me 3 months of free satellite radio after purchasing my used 'Stang. Obviously, since it's free, I'm gonna take up the offer. But I was wondering if anyone here has Sirius, and how they like it. I never really conisdered it before, especially with the radio and iPod, but it seems cool. I'll check it out and give it a try. Anyone here liking their Sirius Satellite Radio? Any station recommendations? And how much is it for regular service?

I like mine - I never listen to regular radio anymore. Either a CD is playing or the Sirius is on.

Sirius is wonderful..If you pay $500 you would not have to ever pay them again.....I always loved it better than XM. But they recently Merged,,I dont know how thats ghonna work...Most of the big Stars have show's on Sirius....Eminem aka Slim Shady, Howard Stern, Martha Stewart and so fort....The sound quality is also unique to conventional FM/AM...........SATELLITE RADIO IS HERE TO STAY...........NO FCC CENSORING......

Yeah as long as you don't listen to the top 20 crap, you probably wont have commercials. For alternative/hard rock, there is nothing better than sirius radio.

they will still offer both services, and then more expensive combined service

I initially didn't want it on my car and probably wouldn't have put it on had I ordered my car. But my stang was sitting there with ALL the other options I wanted, + sirius, and I certainly wasn't going to turn her away just 'cause of that.

A month in, I decided I loved it and bought the lifetime subscription. I'll break even in 4 years on that; totally worth it.

So to answer your question, you may not realize you want it now, but once ou have it, you'll wonder how you did without it. The sound quality is SOOO much better.
