And fortunately, they haven't messed with it (so far).

Wow, you and like 14 other people still listen to him. j/k

I had to give up on him about 2 years ago.

I backed into the, now discontinued, Lifetime Subscription, for the SiriusXM app. It used to come with a radio Lifetime Subscription, when they first launched the app.

Although my G35 has the XM radio, I just Bluetooth the app to my Pioneer head-unit in the Berlina.

He had a big role in bringing millions of listeners to satellite radio. I mostly listen for the phony phone calls, they give me a good laugh during my mostly miserable work days lol.

Called yesterday. Told the rep I wanted to cancel before renewal. She asked why and I just told her it was too expensive. She quickly replied that there might be special deals I might be interested in. First was All Access for $90 plus royalty fee for 12 months. I replied that I was happy with Select service. She then offered $60 plus royalty fee (total $72) for 12 months. I might have been able to squeeze for a bit more but was satisfied.

Total call time was around 10 minutes. Glad the subscription is 12 months so won’t have to do this again for awhile.

That's the rate YHC gets for a year. $6 a month isn't a bad rate.

Just opened the "ComeBackNow" letter moments ago. Figured out quickly $72 and not $60. Still debating...
