Between XM and Sirius sat. radio?

Question

which is better for news talk?

I don't care about sports.

Answer 1

XM Simply because they have better news and talk, more news and talk channels then sirius, and the sound quality is way better.

Answer 2

I'm partial to XM. I listen to CNBC most of the time, but it's nice that all the major news nets are on XM. Also the  Weather Channel, traffic and weather for selected US cities, and a new channel devoted to the presidential election. They also have their own talk shows including Oprah and Air America. I also like their comedy channels better than Sirius'. XM carries the best of PBS and, though not important to you, their sports is pretty good. Wish they had NFL. But soon a merger between XM and Sirius will make all of both available to subscribers.

CNN, etc.) and talk (Air America, the liberal network, however no in-house talk staiton, however they do carry some sports shows from XM)....with sirius as i understand it they occasionally preempt the talk stations to make way for whatever sports games they have going on

Answer 6

Sirius has NPR, two channels each of conservative and liberal talk, Raw Dog comedy, Howard Stern, plus all the major news networks.  They did recently drop C-Span, so if you want that, get XM.
