Clarification on Sprint/Sirius Relationship

Yesterday it was reported that Sprint Nextel was dropping Sirius from the Vision and Power Vision plans. This is incorrect.
Sprint Nextel is simply dropping a single channel, but is retaining the full $6.95/month service. The relationship between the two services is fine and healthy.
The original RCRWireless News article indicated the "Sirius Hits streaming music service" was being dropped - which was the source of the confusion (who the hell calls a channel a "service"? oh well, no excuses). After further inquiry with Sirius I learned that it was indeed just one channel and not the entire service that was being affected, so I want to ensure that this is cleared up for everyone.
You may commence critiquing... now.

No critique here. I'm just glad you have the balls to let everyone know.

What is this place? CBS?

That's one less channel for Sprint NOT to market. As one poster previously said, he's had Sprint for years and never knew this existed.

Whew! I was afraid (very afraid!) that this reflected on the ultimate market for Satellite Radio.

Wait, you cancelled your Sprint account? Wasn't this information discovered through a billing insert sent to customers?
Dude your an idiot.
