What is the pros and cons of Sirius Satellite Radio?

Question

WHY SHOULD SOMEONE GET SIRIUS RADIO AND WHY SHOULDN'T SOMEONE GET IT

Answer 1

Pros: Lots of stations, always commercial free, uncut songs, great verity, youll hear stuff you never expected.

Cons: Some times the signal gets lost.

Answer 2

Pros:

Commercial-free music, including many formats you can't find on FM.  Many talk and news programs.  Howard Stern. Listen to every NFL team's broadcast of every game, plus NBA and NASCAR.

Cons:

Music channels have a lot of repeats.  It can be hard to get a signal with the antenna indoors.

Answer 3

The pros are mentioned including non-commercial music channels, news talk and sports programs that will keep you entertained.

My biggest problem with Sirius is the reception.  I constantly have drop outs when I go under a bridge, a tree-covered road or inside buildings (Parking garage). It can really be annoying.

Plus, be prepared to pay for the start up.  The purchase of a receiver, installation (unless you can do it yourself), the activation fee and monthly fee are hard costs upfront.

Answer 4

Pro: There is so many stations you will probably find a couple to like. Also few commercials and more than just music (the comedy channels are something you can't hear on regular radio)

Cons: sometimes especially the rock stations are so specialized that it's hard to be able to find one station that has a good mix.

but I'd highly recommend it.
