Do you have Sirus already?  Another question, is his TV show more lenient than radio?  I’ve seen some pretty raunchy stuff flipping through the channels.

I’ve had Sirius since last May, so I’ve had it for a long while now.  About his shows being lenient on TV compared to radio, honestly, I have no idea.  I only seen the shows on E!, i’ve never listened to him on radio because everywhere I live, I don’t get his broadcast.

However, I am looking forward to it because on some of his shows, he talks about hilarious stuff, and that’s just TV!  I can just imagine the things he’ll do on actual satellite radio where he doesn’t have to worry about being censored!  Sheesh!  We’ll just have to wait and see 😊

Sirius will be gone before you know it. I really doubt Howard will save it. I have better morning shows for free on regular radio here in San Diego.

Don’t be so ignorant.  You have to realize that XM came out way before Sirius.  So obviously XM is going to have more subscribers than Sirius.  Just because they have more doesn’t mean Sirius is going to go out of business.  Look at DirecTV and Dish Network for example.  DTV has way more than Dish, is Dish getting close to going out of business?  I don’t think so.

They are a profitable number 2.  That’s what Sirius is going to be, a profitable number 2.  Technically, if you actually think about it, Sirius has millions and millions more subscribers than XM…and that’s because of Dish Network.  I have both XM and Sirius, and I like listening to both.  Competition is a good thing, and we need it.

Btw, my post above is not meant to attack you or anyone, no harm intended.

I wasn’t comparing Sirius to XM. I was just saying they are going under. Their stock has dropped alot and are continuing to lose money. Just read the article I linked in my previous post.
