Re: Of course they'll file
Sirius is now going to break even at 2 millions subs with their second generation chipset, which lower hardware subsidies from Sirius by 30% immediately. XM AFAIK is saying they need 3 million subs to break even.
Now, I don't understand where you come in saying that they have a bad programming selection. I believe it is this way... XM chose quantity in music channels, Sirius chose quality. Which would you rather have? Both have 100 channels, but Sirius has 60 commercial free music channels and XM has 71 music channels with 30 or so commercial free. The rest are made up of news, talk, entertainment, and comedy channels.
The only downside I can find in Sirius that XM beats them in is the Comedy channel. That definitely needs some work, but the music selection is fabulous. Sirius Dance Hits beat BPM by far. |
