Is a subscription to Sirius XM worth it?

I have a yearly “negotiation” with them by telephone. It usually takes about 45 minutes and then repeatedly telling me that the two Howard stern Channels will not be included but eventually they relent and give me the premium package for about $7 per month which is all the service is worth to me.

I’d say generally if you live in a major city with plenty of good quality radio then Sirius is of less relative value than if you live more rurally with little or no choice of channels. The service certainly has significantly different relative value based on both circumstances.
@Muthafukajones thats a part of it. I travel through 4 counties everyday, no 1 radio station covers the area i travel daily, atleast 1 with tunes i like.

We got my father a lifetime pass when xm was first launched so that worked out, but they stopped doing that years ago.

I got 6 months of it free when I bought my new truck. I didn't renew. Most of the time I drive with the radio turned off.

I dislike their channels. Not worth the money.
@Spunkylama it is just a few stations i actually like, valid point.

@MarineBob i get it free for 90 days with my new truck, i like it, and am debating if its worth subscribing.

Its pretty cheap and my mom listens to comedy and old radio show channels constantly. Also they have some good music channels. It all depends on how much time you spend in your car and whats available for you there. We cannot tell you.
@REMsleep ever since the apple store took back all the music i purchased, and music can only be downloaded via subscription, im pondering what is better. A subscription to my personal downloads or a subscription to Sirius XM that plays a portion of what i would download. 🤔

@checkoutanytime Wow I can't believe that Apple won't let you listen to music that you already purchased with an additional subscription. Thats what I hate about Apple. You buy their products and they own you.

If you are in the car alot then buy it. As much as I listen to my audio books and podcasts sometimes Im in a hurry and I can't find anything and I like just having options.
