They do that every year. As soon as you get close to your subscription running out, call them and tell them you want to cancel unless you get the same rate and they'll always do it or sometimes even offer something better.

I actually had to cancel this year, they didn't offer me the same deal it was a lower tier than platinum
2 weeks after cancelling got the letter in the mail which lets me add another car and another streaming user for 4 more dollars a month |

I would never pay more than 5 bucks a year period. Their product doesn't have a lot of value for me though.

You can still squeeze them for $6-7 per month and that's not bad value if you're into any of the real niche stations; content that you can't get without some other streaming service or owning the physical media.
I'm a big Grateful Dead fan and their station is great listening for the hardcore fan. Awesome value without committing to owning a bunch of CDs. |

Was lucky enough to purchase the lifetime subscription back in 2006. Definitely money well spent. I think they stopped doing that now, but I’d imagine if you made them the right offer they would take anything. It’s not like it costs them anything to give you access.

Customer acquisition is not a zero cost game. At a high level, systems have to be procured implemented and maintained to add and remove subscribers to their system, and human resources. It's in the millions of dollars per year and in the billions over time. It costs money dude.

Don't get me started on Sirius. Ugh. Our various subscriptions all ran out and the Sirius people are on me like white on rice. Phone calls, text messages, letters, etc, etc, etc. Just leave me alone. I DO NOT WANT YOUR PRODUCT.....EVER.
Sorry, but I just despise their marketing model.....they give you 3 months "free" subscription with a new car and then WHAMMO with the deluge of marketing crap. Then, of course, each year you've gotta go through the "cancellation/resubscription" dance. I'd rather hear myself sing in the car than partner up with Sirius......and I can't sing worth crap. Fini. |

But we're outliers as far as putting effort into an alternative solution. At a certain point, I figured out, with both Phish and the Dead, what "eras" I liked and just loaded up thumb drives. Most folks I know that are fans feel that's a lot of effort when they can just turn on Channel 23 or Channel 29. |

It's worth it. They're NFL talk shows are way better than ESPNs in my opinion. Plenty of music channels as well. Last edited by PAChiefsGuy; 09-12-2024 at 09:34 AM.. |
