My 2010 Prius V has a SAT radio and I'm learning a bit about it, but the channels have me confused. I printed out the channel listings, but many do not line up with the print-out. I printed out the ones from the SIRIUS site, but I don't see differences in the XM. Am I looking at this wrong? Any suggestions? If I can't get a deal on the pricing, I might go ala carte. I can't justify $12.95 a month. The numbers I've seen here indicate a package for $77.00 a year. Is this renewable? I'd do that. Unfortunately, having that gizmo in the car has got me addicted already, but the cost still has to be reasonable and no, I don't need/want Howard. I like the talk, sports and some of the music.
Even though Serius and XM merged a while back, there are Serius only and XM only channels from what I understand. I am a Serius subscriber from before the merge. There are channels offered from XM that the only way I can receive, is if I pay for the "best of XM" I think it went the other way around also. I agree, Howard is a bit vulger and obnoxious but he can be funny as hell sometimes...
First time with a Satellite radio in my Prius and I am addicted....plenty to listen to and never bored....will subscribe when over for sure.
When you or anyone else does subscribe, request the $77 promotion. It's for a year and will actually cost around $85-90USD with royalty fees and taxes. Call 800-347-0600. NB: I have no affiliation with XMRadio, Sirius or Toyota. Just a heads up to save a few bucks.
The Sirius & XM channel lineups are different which is why they announce "available on Sirius nnn or XM yyy".
