Anyone else finding XM programming (post Sirius channel merger) sucking hard?

Left of Center is/ was way better than XMU will ever be...
that said Fred, Ethel and Lucy were all quite good on XM, even if devoid of any character.
In general I found XM a little too cold in what the channels played, maybe it was the lack of a physical DJs voice on the channel, maybe it was the overly focused lineup.
Can't say that I wasn't glad to swap my XM tuner for a Sirius one in the A3.
I find myself switching channels a bit much these days with Sirius though.

If I was in charge, there would be a station that just plays Lita Ford-all day and all night.

Actually...
I was a Lucy, Fred, Ethel, Fungus guy but I really dig Lithum, Alt Nation, Octane, Faction, 1st Wave. Trevor really likes the AC/DC 24/7 channel. Next time you guys see him, give him and "Oy" and he'll fist pump and sing along with you or give him a "Dirty Deeds" and he'll scream "Done Dirt Cheap" right back. He rocks!

Self-knowledge is a good first step. As to your question...
... I hadn't noticed. Then again, I don't much fret since--for reasons I can't fathom--satellite radio service is present on my allroad and it's... FREE! Haven't paid for it in the 2+ years I've owned the car. Maybe just the cool guys receive this perk.
