People do this?



Sirius is a pain in the ass. They give you a free 3 month subscription
or something when you buy a new, Sirus equipped vehicle
and then hound the bananas out of you to set it up and subscribe.

I had a Sirius subscription way back when they first started and
took advantage of a "free" lifetime offer for $300. They seem to
have lost records of that.

I unsubscribed from all their emails. Don't need it. I figured out
how to pair my cell phone via Bluetooth and downloaded the Nissan app
that allows me to go on-line in the car. Subscribed to the free
version of Pandora. That's good enough in addition to local radio.


Can you get Pandora in the car?

Yes, via the cell phone and Bluetooth. The car has a button for "Apps".
Pandora is one of them.
