said by Mel says in various interviews : If the deal is approved, the companies have said they would offer pricing plans ranging from $6.99 per month, for 50 channels offered by one service, up to $16.99 a month, where subscribers would keep their existing service plus choose channels offered by the other service. It isn't possible now to pick channels one by one.
A la carte would be sweet and for those looking for mainly music channels, pricing would be cut to nearly 1/2 the price it is now. |

"basic package around $9.95 " Sign me up ! No MLB or Stern as a Bonus ! Sounds like a Great package.  -- If only the Verizon CSRs worked this well.  |

Until they upped it to $13 (or whatever it is today) to subsidize online streaming and O&A. |

[/BQUOTE :As someone who was with XM since 2003, that's not correct. XM Went to $13 when they dumped the commercials on the music channels - they used to play a few here and there. Then they dumped the commercials and upped the rate. We did get online streaming, but I'd bet few use it. I still hope this merger doesn't get approved. If so, it's a sad day for XM as we have the best technology, best music (I've had Sirius in numerous rentals and it's way too much like FM with DJ's drivel and such), and brightest standalone financial outlook. I'll probably stick around after the merger and see what the deals are. Best case, the new Slacker stuff is looking very good. Worst case is I save ~$20/mo (2 radios). |
