Not sure of the technical reasons, but my understanding is that (since the last few months at least) you can't stream sirius unless you have paid for the internet streaming option in addition to your regular subscription. And in regard to pandora, one benefit of premium is no limit on hours of use per month and also ad free. Keep in mind that most SB users haven't actually noticed any ads until recently, but they seem to be popping up now.
