Is anyone here a Sirius Satellite Radio subscriber? How do you like it?

I was a subscriber for almost 3 years. I was commuting over 3 hours a day so at the time it was a wonderful alternative to regular radio. I initially subscribed when Howard Stern announced his move, but found that there were other, better shows that were worth listening to (in particular Jim Breuer (who has potentially the funniest story I have ever heard as regards SNL and a Chris Kattan/Norm McDonald interaction).

The inclusion of the Bubba The Love Sponge made a huge difference. S show was right on the very edge, highly funny and always has something to keep you engaged. Over time, after Howard Stern joined, I found that his show devolved from being interesting, funny and edgy to becoming the "where's Arty", "Sal & Richard act gay" show.It was the same theme effectively repeated over and over again.

Boredom set in. I lost a great deal of respect for Sirius when they didn't initially renew the Bubba contract. After wrangling they did get a new, short contract.

The next year Sirius went out and got a Bubba contract which was just a replay of his regular syndicated radio show. The edge was gone. The blandness of the Howard Stern show and the dumbing down of the Bubba show led me to a point where there was no longer compelling content.

I cancelled my service and moved to podcasts. I have a group of different podcasts that I subscribe to, and are now an Audible book subscriber. I don't miss satellite at all.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
