At one point they were about to merge but don't know now. I have XM. For music they are about the same. Are you a Stern fan? If so that is Sirius. If you like O and A then XM is you. Sirius also has the NFL which I wouldn't mind having. Both are very similar just have to look at the programming.

Sirus has nascar also.

It boils down to music selection. I think that eitherway you go is ok. I honestly think I like sirus best.

I have had both and prefer Sirius so much that if XM were the only satellite radio service, I would go back to regular radio.

The easiest way to describe the difference in programming is to think of Sirius as FM without commercials whereas XM digs deeper and plays tracks you don't often hear on regular radio.

You can get free three-day online trials of both services through their websites. You should try them out and choose the one you like best.
