Well good Morning Julie!!!! :D
So what did you think of the App Release?I did see your post about Howard and think your right,he will be there but it is not needed if he's not..
Expecting heavy rain here today,how about in Mich?
wait im here, lol. I'm opening a new gym and its our grand opening today. Had to start the pig roast.
We do have sirius here and i just got the iphone app and sub to it. now just need the sp to go north of these blasted .3's
Good Morning Pearl,excellent news and your one of the Million downloader's
Here is an excellent article about the App...http://www.cnbc.com/id/31452955
Mypearl,when you say the sub for it ,do you mean a brand new sub or just added the $2.99 premium feed to get it?Quote:

So you think Howard will be on the app? When and what do you
think the reason for the delay? Sorry, Johnny if you wrote yesterday
about that, I can't recall this early.
Rain, rain and more rain. We had lightning and thunder last night
and the sky is overcast this morning. So far summer has sucked.
If you're a duck, not so much. :D
Julie
P.S. Good morning mypearl, didn't mean to ignore you! :)
That is the one part of SXM not familiar with,Commercial prices and how many subs they have frrom it...Quote:

2 Theories here on why...Quote:

But i believe he'll be there for sure..It's all about Money to both..
i think my average is .35 i started buying at .50 and have 40k shares. i dont mind sharing that info becasue heck im a learning investor. i saw long ago before the bk scare that this is going to be huge, and then during the bk scare i knew that someone would buy out the debt one way or the other. it just made since with all the revanue coming in. it was the first time in my life that i invested my bonus check, and dont want to loose it so i reserch my butt off.
i wanted to add that in a 10 year or 20 year run itll be less headache than rental property and in the end have WAY more money in the "kitty".
I agree. The app shown at the stockholders meeting had him on it.Quote:

P.S. Unfortunately I have to get ready for work. All those people who couldn't make it to the bank during the week. Enjoy the day!
Julie and Mypearl,great talking this morning,but junior just showed up and have to go Feed him his Pancakes....LOL Talk later and have a great Day.
Good Morning All!
Lots of Buzz about the App. and I think the timing is great with Fathers Day Tomorrow....Just like Mel said....
Cheers to all the Siri investors we have had lots of ups and downs...mostly downs but I believe that could be behind us now....and in the long run its a blessing in disguise that to be able to still get into any stock even below .50 cents. If Siri becomes the biggest multimedia company not only in the US but now possible the world and we can get to half the adv pps compared to the other multimedia companies we will be very rich....
So have a very nice weekend....and it will be interesting to see what will transpire on monday....Take it easy Tony:)

First of all I would be very surprised if the OEMs are going to pay that royalty fee increase, not with the contracts being what they are. Second, so the number you should start with should be 15 million (self paying) subs. Then you forget that the rate increase is broken into two major parts, just under 2 dollars for the 12.95 sub and just under 1 dollar for the family plan sub. So if we use those figures then you come to (11.5 million X 2 = 23 million per month) + (3.5 million X 1 = 3.5 million per month) = 26.5 million per month X 5 = 132 million in extra revenue for the rest of the year, (that also is a over estimate because there is no telling how many will pay ahead to push the increase off).
2.) As far as we know so far it is only 700,000 and out of those there are about 50,000 that have gone with the al lacart of 6.99.
I could go on but I think you got the point.
John,The rest of the year Forecast is taking into account the adding of new self paying subs after July 31 2009,which i belive will even out your correct figure with todays numbers..Assumption yes,but it was thrown out there without knowing App numbers,and with almost 1 million downloads,which i beieve 90% are already subs who want to listen on their I-phone.
but going forward if numbers recede and we have even a 5% take rate it is huge,but unknown at this point.
BTW good Morning to you to...
where do you get the Family plan sub number of 3.5Mil?
With Arpu being 10.60 and 3.5mil in promos counted in that,it is pretty close to $12 arpu...
Amen! The main purpose of ANY corporation is to return value to the stockholder. Mel has done a shitty job thusfar. We'll see what the BOD thinks as his contract is coming up too, correct?Quote:

God I hope that family plan percentage did not include the OEMs because then both our figures are way off. As for trying to calculate the promo ARPU, I would not even try all the contracts are different and to hard to figure out who pays what, and when.
Top of the morning to you to.

Of course I am a newbie here and you have been around so I am sure you will get a pass without getting told to take a hike. Maybe thats just how it works here.
