Sure it is. I subscribe to both and I have to say that the only reason I keep XM is the MLB and 1 or 2 other channels. I do like the way XM organizes it's sports channels, but I have online access so I can keep up with the Sirius sports schedules amd plus they have a lot more of it. Sometimes I wish I could read the Sirius display, but then again sometimes I wish I could drive. Reading the text display from my XM PCR is not a high priority for me.. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary Wood" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
