Went to do my usual cancel routine to get the next year at a nice low rate. One radio was added mid-year and have a good rate to August but my Honda 2017 Odyssey radio was gonna be full price on Monday.

Went online, sent me to chat. The AI bot made one offer of $7.99 plus fee's. Tried to lower, then confirmed cancel. That was it. Canceled.

See how many emails I know get and phone call. They've been calling me daily on my old now totalled Sonata and a new Chevy Bolt we got that received a 1 day trial! lol.

SiriusXM is slowly destroying its own classic channels with AI voices and fake-sounding jingles.

50s Gold used to feel like real vintage radio. Now half the imaging sounds artificial and lifeless. The old jingles had character. The new AI stuff sounds cold and corporate.

If you're going to run nostalgia channels, don't remove the human nostalgia from them.

Been thinking about this lately... as a power user of the SiriusXM app both on my phone and in the car through CarPlay, things have come a long way lately.

I have my own opinions, but I won’t add them here because I don’t want to lead the witness. I’m more curious what other power users think.

What’s the one feature or improvement you’d want most? Could be something simple or something totally out of left field that's a pipe dream.

Maybe if enough of us upvote/share ideas, someone internally sees it and something actually happens...

Limited Edition Channel 510 is "Miles Davis Radio", "Miles Davis Music 24/7".

Two new Xtra Channels debut:

Channel 1319 is "Country Coffee House", "Country unplugged".

Channel 1320 is "Road Trip 2K", "Aux cord anthems" [who remembers aux cords?]

STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I don't work for SiriusXM. I do know how to download site data from the channel guide and find the changes. The channel guide is a separate feed from the data displayed in the web player and apps, so there can be discrepancies.

I am getting so annoyed with this channel. Have been a 15 year subscriber mainly for the GD channels, but they really need someone else to do the programming. I think 80% of the time I tune in, they are playing shows from 74 and earlier. I mean I love the era, but mix it up. Play some 80's and 90's shows too. Maybe there are not as many that were great, but there still are some great one. Mix it up!

Called to negotiate a better rate after a jump to $25.99/month charges. I had been paying $60-72/year since 2021. Spoke to a live person and she wouldn't negotiate lower than $12.99/mo and she didn't counter offer when I said to cancel. So I'm canceled, lol. Is this how it works these days? I thought they were trained to convince you to stay

Has anyone heard this PHENOMENONAL 70s band played on any Sirius channel?

The only show I ever heard that played SAHB was on The Friday Night Freakout with Drew Carey.

The body of work is certainly there for a full-time channel, plus when you add in songs that influenced them, there's plenty of meat.

Doesn't matter which one you listen to: Deep Tracks (& Just Music version), Classic Vinyl (& Just Music), Little Steven's Underground Garage, Classic Rock Rewind or even the 70's rock. ALL of them CONSTANTLY just keep shoving a tiny group of artists down the listener's throat. And then they have the nerve to say "Chosen for you by humans, not algorithms" in their bumps.

Van Morrison, Kinks, Grateful Dead, CCR/ Fogerty, the Stones...at least two of these every 1.5 hours, like clockwork.

The Dead have their own station. If I wanted to hear them every hour or so, I'd just listen to that.

The obsession with Van Morrison & the Kinks doesn't even make sense.

This tiny group gets ridiculous rotation while hundreds and hundreds of just as popular or moreso acts get ZERO airplay.

The blatant favoritism is really, really turning me off to Sirius.

Why are they playing so much country music on Hits 1 lately? If I wanted to listen to that I'd put on a country station. So annoying, can barely listen to Hits1 anymore.

Just curious if anyone knows .. I heard the artist actually has to pay Sirius to keep the channel going so the artist needs to have deep pockets.

After giving this a listen for a few days, I think Sirius thinks Southern Rock is any music by an artist that was born in the South.

While they do play Southern Rock at times, at other times the music they play would be a stretch calling it Southern Rock.

Since my first car I've had a Sirius doggie sticker on it. Unfortunately my car was totaled; I'm looking for another sticker for the new car to continue a tradition.

eBay has some, but I think they're all bootleg. I'd rather have a legit one, if anyone has one lying around.

Like I know it's going to be a repetitive playlist, it's SiriusXM, but can someone please tell them we don't have to hear these two songs every damn day? I swear you could tune into the channel on any random day and they would play those two songs, without fail. There are more popular hard rock songs! Play them! Ok, rant over

So today I made a long haul drive (7+ hours) and flipping channels, I heard "How Long" by Ace (1975) on the following stations:

70s on 7

Yacht Rock Radio

The Blend

The Bridge

Classic Rewind

Classic Vinyl

The Spectrum

and those are just on my presets.

Its a great song, dont get me wrong, but really?

Is there any way to call them and actually speak with someone?
