He can be entertaining, but that's no reason to subscribe to inferior satellite radio.

XM all the way... better equipment and music. (and Air America)

Oh god, are you serious? No pun intended...........Howard Sterm is the ONLY reason MILLIONS got it in the first place, and the ONLY reason MILLIONS will continue to suscribe. If not for HS, they'd both be relegated to nothing more than a fancy way to listen to decent music.

Understood. I'm just looking at it from the perspective of an XM fanboy and music lover. If Howard and clunky radios are your gig, Sirius is the way to go.
Personally I wish XM had offered him more money, as he would have made a great addition to their talk lineup.
