I mentioned I had two other complaints about SiriusXM Radio. Then when I started writing them up here, one of them suddenly seemed too trivial to mention. So here's the other one…
It's that I thought the premise of the station was to listen to ad-free programming. And maybe it doesn't technically qualify as advertising but they spend an awful lot of time on the channels they produce telling us we're listening to SiriusXM Radio and how wonderful SiriusXM Radio is and how we should tune in SiriusXM Radio. At times you want to yell at your speakers, "Are you people aware that I already have a subscription??? That I don't need a sales pitch for listening to SiriusXM Radio because I'm listening to SiriusXM Radio at the moment???"
I feel the same way when I get my subscription copy of a magazine and eleven little cards fall out urging me to subscribe.
