Music

[crack]

First, what music do you like? Theres only 2 good rap stations if you like rap but channel 67 is _really_ good.

No ads? only 20/100 stations are ad free but the stations that do have ads are like once every 20 mins and only 1-2 ads prolly On-star or directv.

SOUND QUALITY: AMAZING

I have XMPCR(XM PC reciever), AMAZING AMAZING SOUND.

There are some FM stations rebroadcasted into XM - not many. I know LA KISS in LA in rebroadcasted and they are a really good hit station.

During the holiday they were offering free activation but not sure if they are anymore. 10$ activation, 10$ monthly, 50$ equipment.

I rate it 9/10 and it would of got 10/10 but they billed me 10 days early once and my credit card was already maxed so i got a 40$ fee.

I know im getting XM Radio in my new car.

*Channel 67(rap,r&b) has like 4 DJs always doing their mixes. Hot stuff.

heres a screeny of their remote..i always dont like this open so if you alt-crt-del from it you can close the remote and listen to the radio while the pc is off.

*EDIT did i mention - MTV,VH1 has stations on there. Also Disney, CNN,MSNBC,CNET and other big companys have stations.

Sounds good. I like rock/alternative mostly. I listed the bands I like above (on pg 1, well look at Blaq's list). The monthly fee isn't as bad as I thought it would be, and some ad free stations are better than none.

EDIT: Read your edit. That is also a very nice perk.

Yea, its good, cheap, radio. 1-2 ads and AMAZING, AMAZING, FREKIN AMAZING sound. If you like rock they have a good Unsigned station where unsigned bands get their fame. They also have alot more rock then rap..they have classic rock(46),alternative(44,45),hard rock(41) and 7 others.

Yay Esuna you too like j-pop and j-rock? You probably heard of gackt or porno graffiti? Finally someone in this forum that likes j-pop and j-rock unless they're ashamed to admit it , like my some of my friends are.
