Since getting Sirius back around 2002, I never listened to FM radio again. In fact, I've been in the Southern Connecticut area for the past 7 years and I can't even name one FM radio station here.

I don't mind the $20 a month or so it costs me. Nearly 100 channels of commercial free music in just about any genre I'm in the mood to listen to.

I also like that the artists and songwriters get paid on account of my subscription. Even though their royalties are fractions of a penny for each airplay, it can add up for the ones who have a lot of hits.

When I left FM radio, it was a wasteland of narrow playlists, non-stop annoying ads and the constant yakking of the "DJs" who were all trying to become the next Howard Stern.

Don't miss FM radio at all. It used to be good though.

Don't hold me to it but I could swear the last time I listened to FM radio the time spent in commercials equaled the music broadcast time. I recall it was during the evening commute window.

"You give us 22 minutes, we'll give you the world 11 minutes of commercials."

Between XM and the oddball music ported to the smart phone, I almost never listen to any of the local stations.

Call Sirius and tell them you want to cancel. They will offer to reduce your $20 charge down to $6.95 per month for a year. I don’t drive as much with work from home and didn’t see a need for $20 and since i have other options wanted to save the cost and the customer service rep was happy to offer me a reduced rate for a year. When it goes back up to $20 next year you can decide then what you want to do.
