    The real save sirius ideas !!

    LOOK I LIKE THE IDEA OF SAVESIRIUS.ORG BUT BITCHIN AND CRYING IN MY BEER NEVER GOT ME ANYWERE SO LETS PUT REAL IDEAS DOWN (AS WE KNOW SIRIUS XM PEOPLE ARE WATCHING)

    I GOT THIS OFF OF MINYANVILLE..
    Business Makeover: Sirius XM

    If it's broke, fix it.

    The July merger of Sirius and XM was supposed to be just the boost the struggling satellite-radio providers needed to overtake their terrestrial competition. But last week, the broadcaster reported a third-quarter loss of $4.88 billion. Although revenue increased, it wasn’t enough to compensate for the reduction in consumer discretionary spending.

    With the company’s stock now trading at roughly a quarter and music fans increasingly relying on their MP3 players -- or toughing it out with the FM dial -- how can Sirius XM (SIRI) change channels?



    1 Tap into Christian rock's growing audience: Between Creed songs, program sermons that demand that listeners recruit other Sirius XM subscribers.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2 Lucy, Fred and Ethel -- XM's popular alternative channels -- were victims of the merger, as were 4 Spanish-language channels. Debut a station called "Ricky" that plays Spanish songs, but can also fit right in with Lucy, Fred and Ethel.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3 Since September, Sirius XM's stock has been hovering at less than $1 on the NASDAQ. Consider a federal bailout in exchange for serving as the government's chief source of propaganda.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    4 Declining automobile sales hit subscriptions hard. Develop receivers that can be powered by pedaling a bike.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    5 Howard Stern is a big incentive to subscribe, but satellite radio's uncensored format leaves him with fewer boundaries to push. Instruct cast member Artie Lange to have a drug relapse during an execution segment.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    6 Remind customers: Music that's available free of charge always sounds better when you have to pay for it.

    NOW THATS A START ..LIKE I ALWAYS SAY DONT WORRY MON EVERYTING GONNA BE ALLRIGHT

    APEX - I read this info as well and imediately thought - if the christian base can affect the outcome of an election - surely christian radio would benifit as well as Sirius! Sounds like a win win to me! The only "fly in the ointment" - "shock jocks" - it might be a stretch for the religious folks to sit "cheeks and jowls" next to x rated stuff??? BUT - I agree - this should help! For the record - I would not be listening to the christian stuff but that doesn't mean that it could not be welcomed by many! Think of it this way - they could enjoy their music and reports without ads like viagra between their preachings!! NOT meant to offend anyone!!!
