How many signed up for best of?

What do you think the penetration rate for best of will be among subscribers? I'm hoping to see 50 percent, if we got close to 10 million to sign up for best off that would be huge. On top of that how many do you think we got to to sign up for life time? The more I think about it the more I keep coming to the conclusion that our big jump up is coming next week when earnings are released.

I for one had a 3 month trial for my new gm and I went ahead and started paying a month early cause I wanted stern in my car :O, I know I'm a rare example but still I'm not the only guy who would do that for stern.

50 percent so far :O

I'm just maintaining my 4 year old XM account still.

I signed up for XM best of Sirius for 3 years up front with on line included.
Cost was $445.Avg of $12.37 a month,good deal.I did my part for COH Did You!!!!!!??

No, johnny is an idiot. :p

If he ROCKED, he would call up and demand a refund, and then buy a lifetime with best of both for $499 plus tax. Cost him about $75 dollars and he would have a whole lot more than 3 years...

Damn,Iam an idiot.Where is the lifetime option at on the website.It wasn't there when I checked options,i heard you guys talking about it but thought it was from years ago....

got my xmp3 last night, 2 years best of. I didn't feel like the xmp3 was going to be a reliable radio so i didn't want to got lifetime, i debated and debated...if it was $399 like Newman (i think) got then I would have been all over it, but another $175 over the 2 year was getting too risky for me.

Im a best of!

I did not and have no intention of doing so. I am fortunate in that Mel has structured the content almost exactly to my liking. I have heard XM numerous times while flying Airtran and the only channel I wanted out of the group was the 1940s channel. Now I have it and am quite content, thank you.

looks like the no votes are winning :/

Sorry. I'm not a big music guy and will surf occasionally but prefer talk content. I do have 5 subs and 31,000 shares. That will have to cover it for now. I will likely buy an iphone when the app comes out and gets a decent review.

to johnny and romo:

The lifetime subs are still being sold for $399 last I heard. Lifetime subs with best of are $499.

This locks in content AND internet for the lifetime of 3 radios, with a $75 transfer fee for each new radio. If you figure your average car lasts 4 years, that is 12 years for $650 (with best of). Even at looking at hardward, if you plan on keeping a portable player for 2 years each, that is 6 years for $650.

If you take johnny's example, he paid $445 for 3 years with best of. If he renews the contract for another 3 years, (assuming prices do not RISE), it will be a total of $900 for the same 6 year period. Don't forget, after the first 3 years is over, you then have to pay for internet if you want to use it.

johnny: XM does not have the lifetime option on their website. You have to call customer service. Better call NOW since I think internet fees start tomorrow? (or maybe today... not sure)

BTW: I am also an XM subscriber. The only reason I got best of was for the NFL. I could care less about howard, but I am also a shareholder and the company needed my money!

there are lots of good programming, but I don't have time to listen to all of it, so best of works for me.

Thanks for the info Newman,i also got it for the NFL and i'll have this car 3 more years and then who knows what kind of options will be out there then with inerops and promo's.I'm happy with 3 year price and internet, i could care less,it just so happens to include it.My next car could come with an inerop for free for a year,so that makes it worthwhile.I didn't realize about $75 exchange of radio fee,that sucks and must go...

I signed a friend up with a best of as a gift. Today he said "3 Days with XM and Im never going back" ;)
