I'd like to have NBA in time for the playoffs. I'm sure you'd like to get MLB asap...I wonder how much more it will be? Said less than both combined, so I'm guessing it will be around 20 bucks....we need to post the best from each or give our recomendations oh cool….I wonder how soon this will go through and we can order?

This merger took over a year to happen Exxon and Mobil merged in way less time. http://www.siriusmerger.com/ is a good said that dispels a lot of concerns about pricing All of the dertractors come from the NAB which is a front special interest for the Clear Channels of the world.

There are some critics out there still...I just hope the price doesn't go up too much, or force me to get the "upper tier" package for more money. If anything the highest package should be the same, and a lesser be less than what it is now. also looks like getting FCC approval should be a given; they’ve never denied after first getting passed by the US Justice.

The new company will operate much more efficiently and probably sign even more names to head up some channels. I know the leadership behind Sirius, wich will be the head of the new company, believes that the medium has to be exclusive personality driven and I think this is really the only thing satelite radio has to offer over its competition. Any Joe Schmo can put together a play list, but if you have David Johansen picking the tunes it is way more exciting. This decision should have happened long before now but at least it happened before baseball season!
