I got Sirius also, then signed up for one year. But my wife drove the car more then me and she didn't listen to it. So I didn't renew. After a while they billed me for 200 or so bucks. I ask why they said it was for the next year. I said I didn't renew, they said they still piped it to me so I owe them. I said that was their fault. They hassled me for about two years, at one point they lowered the bill to 19 bucks, I still wouldn't pay. I haven't heard from them in a couple of months, I guess they gave up.

This is my second SIRI radio

Had the first (an early generation Audiovox) for a little over two years now.

I got one of the new Starmate Replays that has a buffer so you can replay up to 45 mins. of programming. It supposedly runs cooler than the old Audiovox, and also has a 100 channel FM transponder rather than the 4 channel one on the Audiovox clunker.

I'll keep both radios active.

Best thing about them is you have seamless reception pretty much anywhere, even out in the middle of nowhere. My next auto toy is going to be a Garmin GPS unit.

Were you aware that if you have a SIRI account you can listen online as well?

This is the old Audiovox:
