Went from XM trial to subscription
Well, my XM trial was about to expire. The XM folks have been calling me about 5 times a week for the last two weeks. I didn't really care if I got XM or not. But, I didn't want to pay the $9.99/month plus $3.95/month for NavTraffic (3-year subscription). So, I told the XM Rep on the phone that I was unwilling to pay more than $10/month for XM only (not including the NavTraffic). She said hold on, came back a few seconds later and said they would drop the price to $77/year (or $6.43/month). I went ahead and also subscribed to the NavTraffic for $3.95 month. Good deal - I was kinda surprised they just simply dropped the price. Give it a try if your trial is soon to expire.

Yeah if you google around theres always XM deals kicking around.. bringing it down to a good $5-6/month for a year.
I've been lightly contemplating it (while still on my trial), but somehow I dont think I'll bite. If it had the quality of the internet radio I'm accustomed to listening to, i'd be otherwise sold...

The XM Rep told me I could cancel the $77/year plan at anytime and receive a pro-rated amount back. She said the $77/year plan would renew after the first year - so it sounds like it will continue at $77/year. And it didn't require a 3-year committment. Based on the letter I received a few weeks ago from XM, I could have subscribed for three years at $9.99/month (but that took three year committment).

Anyone else get a good deal on the subscription? XM called me yesterday but didnt match the $77/year that drh recieved.
I told them I would think about it and to call me next week. I would like to be able to tell them that others have recieved a good deal so I can do the same.
TIA!!
