The big difference used to be that Sirius had all commercial free music. XM used to pipe in some of their music from broadcast stations. That's the biggest reason I went with Sirius.
A couple months ago, XM went all commercial free with the music, much as Sirius does. Each has their own DJ's for each station.
I believe Sirius still charges a few $$ more a month, but I've talked to people that have had reception problem in some part of the country with XM. Sirius is all satalite, while XM has some terrestrial repeaters to fill in the blank spots. Something about XM's satalites at a different inclination, they are closer to the horizon.
I've got the FM modulator, simply because my unit (hehe, I said unit) get's moved from vehicle to vehicle. Hard wired units have to have a different subscription for each reciever, so multiple cars would require multiple units. Sirius offers family plans with discounts for each additional reciever.
You can pay monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, annual, or multiple years for Sirius, with price breaks the more you pay in advance. I'm on quarterly, billed through my visa. A dog doesn't care if you're rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his.
