Do you really want my suggestion? My suggestion is this. Why pay for a mild incremental improvement over that which is free?

I don't care which is better. As long as what I want to listen to is available on radio, I am not getting hooked into $10 per month for life with price increases guaranteed.

A friend got a new GM car with Satellite radio, loved it and swore he would always have it. When his wife moved him out the weekend before major orthopedic surgery he made some lifestyle adjustments. The new car was traded in for one he could afford, and no more subscription radio. He missed it briefly.

I wouldn't bother with it. My car came with the antenna and I can get the commercials for both stations. I drove some 450 miles across Wyoming in June. I took a handful of my own CD's with me and never gave satellite radio a thought. I enjoyed listening to my own music, when I wanted it. Free!
