I couldn't agree more DF, I remember when the first guitar hero came out- all these people going around saying 'I can can play this, I can play that' and I was thinking for the price of that game you could have bought a real guitar and amp and REALLY learned to play them- and now its extended to drums, bass who knows what else... still, we shall stand firm against this international obsession, it can't last.
Oh, and I really hate the videos people post of themselves playing it on youtube, the ones that come up when you're looking for the real music. |

Ok. Thanks guys. From that list I posted quickly before heading out the door I do see that 53 is, indeed, AC/DC radio. Still, nary a MENTION on XM website!
If this is true, not only will I hear someone say "bone me" (not in county jail, that is...lol) but have a couple of other decent stations out of this merger. Now I just wonder when they are going to boost the price / special packages / outdate hardware as only a monopoly can do.
Like me living out here in the country. I have to actually "rent" a DSL modem. Piece of crap from China that costs me some $10+ per month! No other option. Like renting a phone just like they used to do back in the old days. I still remember laughing as I found my poor 94 year-old neighbor had been renting a MASSIVE rotary phone for some 20 years. No greater pleasure than me putting that monster in a mailer and stuffing the 10 pound black beast into a mailbox so she could go to Meijer and buy a $9 phone!
So, XM might not be pissing me off..yet. Haaa!!!!

Ah, thanks man! That is really good to know. About out the door to work and I'll check it out on the drive.
Amazing that there was nary a WORD on XM's pages (at least last time I checked). Even had a buddy laughing at the lack of info there as he has Sirius.
Guess I'll have to be checking the Sirius pages from now on for info! I shudder to think of what has happened to my Big 10 football. Been too busy to notice but I DID see that my hockey games are now pretty limited. Sigh...
