Now, if I am not mistaken. SIRI actually produces their own content for NFL, while as you have claimed that XM simply snags a feed from the local MLB team feed.

You ARE mistaken. You don't have a freaking clue what you're talking about.

XM receives the feed as part of its deal with MLB.

And it is utterly stupid to assume that SIRI's gaining 1M new subscribers for Stern's 3/4 billion is "better" than XM's 11-year, 650 Million contract with MLB.

You try to simplify everything into terms YOU can understand, and these subjects are much more complex than that. How long does a Stern subscriber last? How long does a MLB subscriber last? How much does each cost the company to get? How many subscribers are LOST as a result of the "negatives" associated with Stern? What would be the opportunity cost of either having done something different? There are tens of other issues.

Your remarks have become downright ignorant and worthy of Sirius Rich or rruff.
