Default I had Sirius and I'm not pleased with the XMification of it.

Channel 26 was my standby and now it has been goofed with.

Default I thought it sucked pretty hard before.

That said, I limit my exposure.

Default But wait... there's more?

Busted!

Typically I only listen to the 60's, 70's, 80's channels. Sometimes America Left (there's a surprise) and the jazz channels. I do use the Chicago traffic channel and the local channels when I travel.

Overall, I have not been overly enthusiastic about XM. The sound is too compressed and muddy. The programming is OK if you've grown tired of the music you've brought with on a long trip, but locally, I rarely use it.
