Sirius XM renewal. Should I pay?

[Siege]

Friggin Sirius XM wants me to pay $87.32 for a year of satellite radio service, for my wife's car.
Should I pay or should I tell my wife to listen to regular FM with commercials?
I don't have satellite radio in my car, and live just fine.

What do you think?  Too much money?

[Monoriu]

This is the first time I've heard of satellite radio. 

Yes, it is too expensive.  Tell your wife to listen to regular radio and ipod instead. 

[MadImmortalMan]

If she wants it bad enough, she should be willing to compromise and get you an indulgence. Like a blowjob every day for two months or something. 



Honestly, it depends how much utility she gets from it.

I like it, but I am notorious for paying for lifestyle premiums that make Mono's yellow skin turn sickly green.

And I enjoy the Lithium channel.  It's all college years, all the time.

That's pretty good for a year of service.  They keep trying to get me to come back for like $20-something for 3 months, which I may do for the hell of it.

Since there are no stations here that reliably play 90s music, Lithium is worth it alone.

My personal fave is First Wave - all 80s alternative, all the time.  Which oddly was the music I listened to in college.

Lithium is also on my favourites.

Only problem is since the move I am spending so much less time in the truck.

[Grey Fox]

Don't pay. They'll probably forget to turn it off.

My dad has had his 3 month XM trial for 4 years now in his Pontiac G6.

[Caliga]

Lucky... my 3 month trial turned off exactly on time.

The only real reason I'd subscribe would be to listen to Stern.  I don't personally feel that's worth the annual fee.  Anyway, I have like 10,000 songs or so on CDs full of mp3s and wmas in my car, so I don't see why I need to pay for programming.

[CountDeMoney]

so I don't see why I need to pay for programming.

Three words: The Elvis Channel.

[CountDeMoney]

And I also like the time-specific channels, 50s on 5, 60s on 6, etc.  You just don't have that much doo-wop in your personal collection that trumps 24/7 50s programming.

QFT.

I also like the public radio channels.  Best part of renting the new Hyundai Sonatas or Versa hatchbacks=free satellite radio.

[Caliga]

Oh, I forgot about the 40s station.  In between songs they played old war reports.

"This just in:  Our boys socked it to Rommel's Africa Corps in Tunisia.  The Axis are falling back toward Monty on their left flank and the coast.  Buy war bonds!"

[Admiral Yi]

You're in Kentucky now, right Seebrew?

How does the hausfrau feel about country music?
