I have some kind of long-term deal with XM, because I was a member forever and ever and ever. So I do have to pay every year, but it's not $15 a month. I pay a yearly fee, but really when I listen to it for is the sports. And tuning is good for sports. And their labeling and organization has gotten better. It used to be kind of a pain to find stuff. I got kind of disgusted with them when I lost a whole bunch of favorites a while back. I never did get that sorted out. But the basic app is fine. So maybe I will drop XM the next time my subscription comes up, but that's almost a year away. I do like the fact that you get baseball and football. Mary
