Maybe there is something to this coming soon thing, and management just let the media have their fun. Who knows. Dont trust them to begin with.
"When I downloaded the app yesterday at 11:56 PM via iTunes and installed it on my iPhone there was a Howard 101 button under the talk catagory, I actually listened for a few seconds. It is now gone."
Warning. This poster I do NOT trust. But others do.
Yes, stang, is that for today, or total? I assumed total(you know what assuming does....)
Not newsworthy if it was just for today. Shit, if it wasnt the #1 app today, Id be shocked.
I like that.Originally Posted by relmor2003
This poster I do trust......
"OK SO The Answer direct from a nice lady at SIrius Customer Service is... Stern and some other content is not available YET via the app "due to mobile performance rights to distribute certain content" but they are "working on it" as this is a new application. I pressed on a timeline but she couldn't comment. I'm thinking they just need a little time to work something out with Stern to make more money as Brandon pointed out... all in all not a bad response but definitely things are not 100% clear yet even at the front line of sales... i didn't expect otherwise."
it doesn't say if it is for the day or total so better not make too much of it just yet
Gotcha. Still, charles......
Are you writing yet!!!.....
Break the story for once. Break ONE good story this month. Last 2 months. Break something interesting. A new positive angle. You do the negative great!!!!! Got that covered my main man!!!
You know what though, siri was #2 earlier and pandora #1. I doubt pandora got more downloads this morning than sirius which would make me think its not just for today. But this is just me assuming
HELLO did every1 miss mypost? i called its what relmor just said, im assuming stern wants more money to be broadcasted through the mobile platform as well. stern likes to play things out and show people he is in demand
Sorry man, Hectic today. I saw that post. You are probably right. I think Howard is coming, just not right now. For whatever reason. I dont think anywhere here thinks the Iphone app will never be able to access Howard. Do they? I mean if they do, I can respect that. Lets debate it.HELLO did every1 miss mypost? i called its what relmor just said, im assuming stern wants more money to be broadcasted through the mobile platform as well. stern likes to play things out and show people he is in demand
Stang...
That was my logic too. I didnt think Pandora would be #1, then #2 , then back to #1 unless it was beyond today.
Good job Trip. I am on hold for customer service. See if they give me the same answer.
One could argue car radios and laptops are mobile.
Spoke with Customer Sevice. Didn't give me the no mobile rights, but did say that Howard is "not yet available, but availability updates will be posted on the SXM website". I asked so he will be available and the guy said, "It will be posted on the website." So Howard is coming.
The guy also said that they are overwhelmed with calls today, so the hype will continue folks. Count on it.
In the PR it says select programming including... Is there more content than listed not available?
Some select programming, including MLB Play-by-Play, NFL Play-by-Play, SIRIUS NASCAR Radio, and Howard Stern, will not be available on the iPhone and iPod touch. Listeners will continue to be able to access that programming through the platforms they are currently offered on.
