I have Sirius on my car and I hate it. Nothing like XM radio which IMHO is much better. The reception on the Sirius sucks when I go under alot of big trees and Fwy underpasses the signal cuts off and the play list on XM is much better. If I have to choose again I would get the HD radio instead.

Sirius is great in the next few years... the long term, HD will prevail!

I agree. The Sirius Radio quality and reception seems poor for the amount of money. I do enjoy the Blue Collar Comedy channel though.

I picked Sirius but honestly I wouldn't go with either the next time around. I wouldn't go with XM if it was offered either. HD is just the same FM content but better sound. Satellite radio has poor sound quality and still limited options in music. For the $500 I would get the iPod adapter when it's out (use the AUX until then) and buy yourself a new 60GB iPod for $399.
