Spencer how does Sirius/xm conversion rate compare to other subscription based companies?
The best part is that the OEM’s don’t really want to do all these incentives because they want to hold their margins. But they are forced to or lose business to their competitors. All good for Sirius-XM.
Next they will start to include longer term subscriptions without Sirius pushing them, so they can claim all the bells and whistles.
And they might include a jack for your computer tower & monitor so you can pull up Pandora in your front seat – LOL – this one is for Roadkill.

That’s hilarious! Also, maybe autos can come with 2-3 car batteries instead of just one…that way they can keep the pc and phone charged so Pandora will keep going. And maybe the vehicles will come without a spare or airbags…the costcutting measures will reduce the price of the vehicle, thus giving the driver more income to pay for their bandwidth services on their phone…
Long Siri…$1.35…here we come $1.50 and $2 bones!
