Update.Went to the idrive and chose all channels and it then started working.All presets are gone and it does not seem to allow you to save them now.I will investigate more tomorrow.

To save a channel, I had to first select the channel I wanted, at which point it would start playing. I then had to hit the back button and click on the same channel again which now gave me the option to store it. Kind of a goofy setup.

No wonder I selected my favorite hip-hop channel and got my ears blown out with some heavy metal the other night. But at any rate, when mine expires, I am def going to re-up.

Do you ever listen to Rude Jude and Lord Sear in the afternoons on Shade45? They kill me, with some of the $hit they say on there.

I'm not sure about this being a BMW issue, it still works great in my ride after the channel mixup last week. The only issue is, like others have said, they screwed up all my presets except for one, Shade45.
Here is info on this from the Sirius/XM site:

Was resetting my presets yesterday when I noticed they added a new channel "Backspin" it's old school Hip-Hop, that's my new preset now. I never really listened to shady45, they talk to much!

Negotiate ... call and ask for the cancellation department ... you should be able to haggle a renewal for less than $100/ year.
