Good luck getting this customer back.


You want to compete with iPod and Zune (especially with their new music service), you better get better channels with less repeats and stop making it so difficult to cancel the subscription. Having to call an XM rep to cancel is a pain in the ass since they keep trying to make us stay. Other services you can just make with the clicking. That alone makes me NOT want to come back.

I like XM more than regular radio, but you need to do something more than just merge channels with Sirius. Come on, do we really need 24 hours of Bruce Springsteen? I like him, but it just seems like wasted time and space.]]>Nov 12th 2008 1:55PM
