When I got my first XM radio subscription it was about $35.00 per year and they gave a slight discount if you paid for 2 or more years up front. I have enjoyed being able to travel anywhere and never have to fiddle with the radio looking for the music that I enjoy.
I was lamenting that the tri-glide not come with Sirius/XM standard. I finally read the manual and saw that I can "provide my own tunes via phone, MP3 player or thumb drive. I tested it yesterday with a couple albums on a 8 GB thumbdrive -- it was so easy even I could do it.
I will not renew my subscription to Sirius/XM.
