Sirius and XM Satellite Radio are fantastic platforms that offer wireless, satellite-based forms of radio. Unfortunately, the two companies haven’t prospered. They continue to suffer losses and subscription rate decreases. One of the major reasons has been the poor economy, but even more disruptive to these satellite companies has been the problem of user accessibility. [...]
It's not official yet, but FCC Chairman Kevin Martin (one of five relevant votes) has decided to allow the merge between Sirius and XM satellite radio providers. However, there are a few caveats that the companies would need to accept—but it's all good news for the consumer. 1. The company(s) would need to freeze prices for three years. 2. "A la carte" options would need to be available with

Shareholders approved a deal Tuesday to allow Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. to acquire its rival XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. for about $5 billion, but the largest hurdle has yet to come regulatory approval in Washington.Shareholders of Sirius and XM had been widely expected to approve the deal, which would allow the companies to save costs on programming, acquiring subscribers and broadcasting. Shareholder advisory firms had already endorsed the deal.More difficult will be getting the deal approved in Washington, where the Department of Justice and the Federal Communications Commission must both give their blessing. Several consumer groups have opposed the combination, saying it would create a monopoly that could hurt consumers.
By: Manuel Oborny Everybody has heard about satellites. But how many people heard about satellite radios? Satellite radio is a subscription radio service. It’s somehow identical to cable television, with the difference that it provides a wider range of stations not available on a standard AM / FM radio. There are many questions to be answered about satellite radios like “How does satellite radios work?”, “What kind of equipment should I purchase?” etc. but in this article I will try to answer a question that first pops up in everybody’s mind: “HOW MUCH DOES SATELLITE RADIO COST”? This is a tricky question because the cost of a satellite radio is divided in two: installation (or activation) costs and the monthly subscription fee. Activation costsActivation costs refers to the amount of money that are to be spent on a XM or Sirius Satellite Radio to start the service. Although you can find many promotions that allows you to save up money, the activation costs vary, being

By: David Johnson If you haven't yet heard of Sirius satellite radio, it is the latest technology in radio broadcasting and it is completely changing the way that we listen to radio. Rather than the radio signal being sent directly from the broadcasting station to the listeners, the signal is sent to a satellite positioned in stationary orbit in space above the earth and the signal can then be sent to far more people this way. It is paid for radio programming, so you get no commercials on it and also this means that there are no sponsors that the broadcasters have to appease. There is also no government censorship either, so the talk radio programming can be very provocative. There is a channel on Sirius satellite radio that is entirely devoted to every genre of music that you can imagine and because it is broadcast digitally from a satellite, everything comes in crystal clear. Howard Stern can only be heard on Sirius satellite now and he has finally parted paths with the censors that

Consumers invited to sound off on $4.7 billion deal to unite XM and Sirius The Federal Communications Commission issued a notice (PDF) asking for members of the public to voice their opinions on the merits of combining the nation's two satellite radio broadcasters. The notice marks the FCC's acceptance of the two companies’ applications to merge. The combined assets of the two media players were valued at approximately $4.7 million when the deal was first announced last February. The FCC now has less than 180 days to decide whether to approve the proposed merger, placing the deadline sometime in December of this year. The Department of Justice must also add its approval for the deal to proceed. The DOJ is charged with assessing whether the combination of the only two companies broadcasting audio programming via satellite within the United States would constitute an illegal monopoly. The two original satellite broadcast licenses granted to XM and Sirius by the FCC 1
Is XM Satellite Radio owned by AOL? It sounds like they have not heard that people can record their calls too for quality assurance. Perhaps all people will have to start video logging all calls to companies to keep them honest. From the description of the video: First Call: May 15: Called to cancel my account and all my radios. Was told all radios canceled. Should've been over here right?Second Call: May 16th: Called to verify cancelation. Was told "All radios set to cancel on May 27th". I asked them "can you please make that effective immediately" They agreed.Third Call: May 17th: Figured I'd start video logging these calls since XM was obviously trying to pull shady tactics. Called to verify cancelation again. Was told all radios are still active. Transfered to cancelation department and the call was disconnected after being on hold for 7 minutes. Video of that call here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sf3ub40eO2oFourth Call: May 18th: He started out saying they are canceled, then

Reuters is reporting that after the Sirius and XM Radio merger, the new satellite company will offer different plans in a sort of a la carte option which will include a lower level of service with fewer channels that will be cheaper than their standard $12.95 a month option and a high level which will be above the $12.95 a month but cheaper than if you bought both services now combined. They will also offer a $12.95 a month option with about the same number of channels. The price has been a major discussion of the U.S. regulatory hearings. While I think this might be a good solution, I’m not sure how well it’ll be received. As a subscriber to XM Radio myself, I still think this merger is a bad idea as there will be no competition in the field and this merger may kill satellite radio.
Now that XM and Sirius satellite are merging, will you buy one? Both have radio stations and programing and that should stay the same after the merger. Their service should be better and their quality should also increase. But will you buy one? Do you already have one? What are your thoughts?Comment and join the conversation.
Listening to music is a great way to relax and just kick back. I always have music on my computer and my iPod to keep things lively. Normally if I wanted to listen to the radio I'd load up The Beat or Z95.3 from back home and sometimes Pandora. But that has all changed thanks to AOL XM Satellite Radio. I'd like to give a big shout out to An American in Ulsan as he let me know about this awesome service.
AOL hasn't been in my good books in the past but things are starting to change (just a tiny bit). This free internet radio is powered by the XM Satellite Radio service. The best part is the CD quality Dolby AAC audio with over 200 AOL stations (the commercials are kept to a minimum; some are commercial free). The stations are awesome--in the Pop category they have ones such as All Mariah Carey, All Madonna, All Prince, and others. If you know of any other free music services, let me know!
There is one thing I'd like to know--are there any AOL disk collectors out there reading my b
XM Satellite radio (XMSR) is trading up 12% out of the chute and is now just over $13.00 after posting a narrower than expected loss for the quarter. The company posted -$0.32 EPS versus -$0.46 estimates and revenues were $240.4 million versus $235 million. The company did actually reel in its subscriber range from a 7.7 to 8.2 million total subscribers by year-end down to a 7.7 to 7.9 million range. The silver lining was a narrower loss projection of $205 to $215 million instead of a $264 million expected. It ended the quarter with a 7.185 million subscriber headcount, and cost per new subscriber climbed from roughly $53.00 to about $60.00.
Sirius (SIRI) is trading up 2.5% at $3.84 on the day.

Chart courtesy of stockchartsShares of XMSR rose nearly 5% to 15.81$ today and SIRI rose nearly 3% after some stimulating comments from Lehman that put investors very happy and actives in both stocks.Today Lehman came out and said that XM is worth 45 dollars a share if they merged with Sirius, or that Sirius was worth about 9,50 dollars if they were acquired by XM. Too see the article click here.Lehman Just Admitted that XM and Sirius are Undervalued taking the actual share price in consideration for a possible merger, it's my opinion. Looking at the charts XMSR has broken out an important resistance $15 with respectable volume and closed above the 200 dma for the first time since 2005, so many reasons to Bullish in the stock now, perhaps after these comments we'll see many pressure in the stock to move up.Disclaimer : Trading stocks involves risk, this information should not be viewed as trading recommendations.The charts provided here are not meant for investment purposes and only
