I have a top of the line hardwired iPOD player in my vehicle, and am
able to listen to what I want when I want without any add'l fees and
without having to deal with any of these modern-day "Vonages."

Cool! Man those IPods are better than I thought. I only got XM radio so I
could listen to the Red Sox (live) while on the boat out here in CA. If an
Ipod can do that, I'm gettin' one. ;-)

Just like my gripe with Vonage, this company has a special fast-track
number for signing up, but you want out, you are going to sit on hold
for some serious time before you get a human voice.

If you can sign up, alter account details, initialize the radio, and
pay via Internet, why not terminate service the same way......?

The reason? I just installed the new SIR-GM1 receiver in the truck...
and I like Sirius' programming better.... If anybody has a late model GM
product and factory installed satellite
radio.... this is a *very* simple black box conversion from XM to
Sirius... works exactly the same as before, keeping all of the factory
features.
