SXM CH 3

Post by Turkeytop » Thu Apr 25, 2019 8:33 pm

New channel they're calling Pandora Now. I gave it a listen today for about seven seconds. I'm making a prediction now that the channel will attract zero audience. It's gawd awful.


I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

Why would us older listeners like it if they’re playing current music for teens and twenty somethings. It’s not gawd awful to them, It’s their music, You sound like our parents did when the Beatles came unto the music scene in the 60’s what are you listening to, That gawd awful group from England they look like bugs.

Clearly, you haven't listened to it. There is no way anyone on earth, regardless of age, gender, race, sexual orientation or species will ever like it. I stand by my prediction. Zero listeners.

I do know what it is, It’s an interactive channel for Pandora and SIRIUS XM with multiple music genres its actually kinda cool, Read up on the website if you have any questions about it.

OK. I was wrong. One listener.

They don’t care if You or Me listen to that one channel they still have our money, I only listen to 5 channels the rest is useless to me but I still pay for the whole thing, Actually my subscription ends in June and it’s see you later SIRIUS XM it has become boring radio if I want that I have FM Radio and it’s free. So in June all my Home and Portable XM Radio junk is going to be donated to my local Salvation Army resale shop.

You must live in a more diverse radio market area than I do. I couldn't get along without it in this town. If I lived in Toronto or Montreal, I wouldn't need it.

I just foolishly returned too early from 3 1/2 months in the Tampa Bay area. I never used the Sat the entire time I was there. But I needed it for the trip home. In GA, TN and KY, the only thing available on regular radio is cowboy music, NASCAR and religion.

I’m more of a AM Talk radio or AM Oldies radio fan, So here in Detroit for me it’s CKWW, WJR, WWJ and WDTK all AM Stations. The XM was great but now they repeat a lot and sound more like FM radio, So why pay for something that I can get for free on regular radio and I will say this Radio from Canada that I pick up here in the Detroit area is so much better then the Stations in Detroit, Just my opinion.

What no Can-Con, I love Can-Con, I have to hear at least one Canadian Group Or Artists a day as a matter of fact I’m listening to the Guess Who’s greatest Hits on CD currently in the car.

When I'm in the U.S. I most often listen to NPR. Here at home I listen to CBC Radio I. I used to like Radio II when it was mostly classical music and jazz. But about a decade ago, they flipped to an All Garage Band format.

I like CBC Radio 2, It’s now called CBC Music, I listen to them in the afternoon. I like CKUE Cool FM 95.1 from Chatham and K-106.3 from Sarnia.

So, seven seconds wasn't really fair. Today I gave them twenty seconds. Verdict remains the same. Gawd awful.

So since you don’t listen to it because you dislike it, Does that mean SiriusXM will have to change it.

I don't care if they change it or not. But when they come to the realization that no one else is listening either, they probably will change it to the All Polka channel or the All bagpipes channel.

I would make it all Hippie music and call it The Woodstock Channel and have Music from 1967- 1972.
