Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be a dyck or anything.

I just did a search last week on XM fees to get an idea what they cost and lots of the forum chatter indicated they had "one foot in the grave".

Also, a lot of people claimed they were calling and getting 5 month subscriptions for $20 after talking to someone. And others said they had no problem getting XM to give them a year for $70. It would take a LOT of time to get your return on investment at those kinds of rates...

Just saying...

Their stock is at a 1 year high but it is still only 1/10th of their peak back in 06.

Analysts don't believe they will last because they haven't increased customer base in the last year, they have $3B in debt and don't really have the means to pay it back. They came very close to filling for Chapter 11 bankruptcy back in Feburary before managing to get a last minute loan to make the payment on their other loans. They can't survive this practice forever, maybe they'll get a government bail-out in the end.
