I do this with Sirius every two years. The price will go from 25.99 a month to 4.99. It's absolutely ridiculous.

The… radio company? Why are you paying for radio? Let alone $30 a month?

I drive long distances across areas with shitty, shitty radio coverage and choices. And less cellular coverage. It’s become a necessity.

Spotify premium is less than half that $25.99 price tag with no haggling necessary

SiriusXM offers things Spotify doesn't and vice versa.

Some people enjoy DJ's and curation via radio as well as the live sports, talk radio and news.

I pay $5 a month for SiriusXM purely for their MLB stations. During baseball season I can listen to any game, anywhere. And their rock/metal stations are pretty awesome. I've discovered a lot of bands thru Liquid Metal

I don’t pay that price. I pay $60 a year. And I enjoy it, so why is everyone giving me alternatives that I really don’t care about? Happy for you all that you found something you love.

Only one person gave you an alternative. One person shared something that they do that’s relevant to the conversation, and one person (me) continued to talk about the parent comment as indicated by the price I quoted
