XM and Sirius kill punk stations
« on: September 25, 2008, 03:40:00 pm »
...and have replaced them both with a 24hr AC/DC station (do you ever really need more than 10 min. of AC/DC anyway?)
 
 I've had XM for a while, but mostly use it for news/talk/sports radio.  Fungus was the only music channel I ever listened to much at all, and it was a pretty damn fine station.

I liked fungus.  Like i said i never listened that much but i always got a kick out of turning on the radio and hearing the misfits, black flag the uk subs and stuff like that.  they also played a lot of newer hardcore stuff i wasn't familiar with mixed in with the oldies.
 
 never heard the sirius station.

I could see the Grateful Dead station, as they have tons of live stuff, solo stuff, etc.  But AC/DC?  I already changed my preset and am missing the punk.

All AC/DC?  Why not just have a huge MP3 collection?   Actually, that's what I think of satellite radio in general...

You'd think Satellite would have enough stations to include music from every format.  Maybe they're going to relaunch the punk channels?  I feel bad for those of you with gay XM - thankfully you'll soon be able to hear HOWARD and won't have to worry about that punk music..

where i live, people would be celebrating the all AC/DC channel as they are clearly the band of choise to be played loudly at all hours of the day and night.
 
  it would be, i said, if any of them had XM Radio.
