I want to get XM... I have been debating between XM and Sirius, and I think I prefer XM.. I prefer Ope and Anthony to Howard Stern, and they are on a premium station on XM... and XM just signed the baseball deal, and already has tons of great stations..

so, how do i get one of those XM boomboxes up and running with the receiver and all that shtuff?

whats the cheapest way to get up and running? anyone use XM or sirius and have any reviews?

Well the old boom box should be under $100 now. It plays cds and won't' work without the Sky-Fi Reciever. It also uses batteries unless you got a home kit for $60. The new boom box plays mp3 cds runs for $200 and won't run without the Sky-Fi. I'm not sure about the baseball programming since it's ESPN Radio's broadcast. College sports seem to be a XM exclusive, but Sirius has atleast 4-5 NBA games a night, NFL Network & every NFL game, plus you can listen to each station online. On the cost end Sirius is cheaper to setup, but the monthy fee is higher. It's up to you.
