Full story: Orlando Sentinel

Question: We are looking at a used Honda Accord, and one of the selling points is that the owner will give us a year's subscription to the XM radio satellite service.

The XM Channel 152 belongs to Clear Channel which is why it is not included in the 'best of xm' package.

There are about 7 channels on XM (they have a small cm after the title) that are programmed by Clear Channel. The channels are part of a package CC received by being one of the first investors in XM.

I tried to upgrade my XM service to include the "Best of Sirius" channels; however, XM's website always errors-out on order submission. Hopefully they will get that fixed soon, because I really don't want to call their off-shored customer care center.

The satellite services will go out of business when wifi in cars becomes widely available but that will be a while.

I upgraded to the Best of Siruis Package this past weekend and I had no choice to call in and take care of it (since it errored out on me, too). However, I actually spoke to a very nice lady here is the US who helped me.

I'm quite P.O'd. XM cancelled XM Music Lab both off air as well as offline. That was the best progressive rock you couldn't hear anywhere else. I'm truly disappointed and may cancel my subscription over it. Their rock music channels now sound pretty much the same as I'd get over regular radio, except for the commercials. Not impressed.

Was surprised that I liked it when I tuned in, but wouldn't pay for radio service, no way.

I wouldnt buy a subscription until they refinance their debt next year. This company headed toward bankruptcy first then higher.

Daily Horoscope for November 26

Gemini

Your eleventh house of friends and associates is activated by the Moon in Aries and it's time to go out and play with your friends. Even the Twins, who have been somewhat reclusive lately, will benefit from socializing tonight. A sense of relief will take hold when you realize that no one really has a better life than you. Sure, it might seem like someone else has a more glamorous existence, but if you could be a fly on the wall in their bedroom, you'd find they have nightmares, too!
