    It's not spam, he's telling the truth. XM has opened up the "Best of Sirius" package now, which includes the NFL channels.

    does just the sports talk radio package cover that?

    Re: Sirius NFL radio now available to XM customers

    For those of you considering this here are a few things to consider:

    - Don't be surprised when they aren't covering the Bills wall to wall. They still cater to the larger market teams a bit more.

    - The programming gets somewhat repetitive and unoriginal at times. I've actually found myself so bored with it as of late that I've switched back to local radio for a while.

    - They are generally the first ones to break news during their breaks so that's definitely a plus.

    - The Opening Drive and the Sirius Blitz rarely do a poor job at being entertaining. The hosts are excellent and the program is well thought out. Definitely recommended. I'd say that the Red Zone is probably the third best programming.

    To be completely honest with you, I wouldn't; especially if you live in the Buffalo area and have access to the local programming. If you are a casual football fan it really isn't for you if it means you have to pay extra.

    it's $4 extra a month- $12.99 vs $16.99

    Still, I agree: not worth it.

    The $4 "Best of Sirius" package is Howard Stern, NFL Radio and Martha Stewart. I'd never listen to Martha Stewart and I might flip to Howard occasionally, so it would basically be a 30% increase in my satellite radio cost for 1 station that I'd use. Not worth it.

    Honestly, most of the music sucks on Sirius too.

    Sirius IS good if you are a person who travels a lot. It sucks having to find radio stations.

    All I want is Hard Attack... absolutely the only thing I want from Sirius, but I've contemplated switching from XM specifically for that.

    Yeah, Hard Attack is an awesome station and would be worth the switch. But XM also has some pretty bad ass stations.

    For what I listen to, not really. Squizz has some good stuff with a lot of pansy stuff mixed in. Liquid Metal has some good stuff with a lot of insane, growling, crap metal mixed in.

    Hard Attack is pretty much all awesome in my book. I'm waiting for the a la carte pricing to come out. Now that my vehicle has XM built in, it's harder to make a switch.

    If you wanted to hear a bunch of fat guys growling into a microphone just go to a farm or something.

    Re: Sirius NFL radio now available to XM customers

    I never listen to the NFL station on Sirius. The only time I even flip on games is if I'm coming home from a game or out on a Sunday and want the scores. Usually what I'll do it put the game I'm interested on the radio and pop a cd in so I can just look at the score. Sad to say, but if I ever listen to talk radio it's WGR before anything on Sirius.
