XM vs SIRIUS Satellite Radio
There's a whole lot of articles out there talking about the recent surge in exposure that SIRIUS Satellite Radio is getting, but out of all of them this article by The Journal News sums it up with the most amount of detail.

Comparing not only the new (or upcoming) content, but also the OEM car distribution as well as satellite configuration and receiver technology, this is a great read for those who are still on the fence between the two providers.

XM vs SIRIUS: Pittsburgh Tribune-Review general comparison

Saturday, November 20, 2004 at 8:02 AM

The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review released a general comparison between XM Satellite Radio and SIRIUS Satellite Radio today. Author Steve Segal documented the entire process of the satellite radio experience: from purchasing the plug-and-play systems to the range of content available for listening.

He stopped short of declaring a 'winner', though from the information he provided you can pretty much make the decision on your own.


Orbitcast will be beginning a multi-series set of articles comparing all aspects of Sirius Satellite Radio vs XM Satellite Radio. These will all be found under the XM vs SIRIUS category.

Didn't get enough of the XM/O&A Army crashing Stern's Rally?

Foundry Music was on scene above Union Square filming the whole event. Out of all the clips, these two are my personal favorites:

It's War: XM Radio crashes Stern - Sirius Rally

Thursday, November 18, 2004 at 2:16 PM

XM Satellite Radio and the O&A Army were at the Stern / Sirius Rally in full force armed with XM Satellite Radio protest signs, O&A 'WOW' stickers, t-shirts, hats and the Opie & Anthony/XM Radio van. Met with cheers and boos from the crowd, the O&A Army had a massive presence all day in Union Square and managed to steal at least some of the attention from Howard's show.


The Police didn't like the sticks attached to the protest signs and confiscated them:
