Hello Richard and all who subscribe to SiriusXM,

i suspect that the only way to get SiriusXM to respond to our concerns about 
accessibility in their current update is to launch a campaign on social media 
where we explain to the general public what's missing from our experience with 
their prodoct. I don't think they care one way or another if we who are 
visually impaired can use their product or not. we're not a priority market for 
SiriusXM. Fortunately, Todd Bruss is working on the StarplayrX APP, or, so 
we've been hearing. There are ways to work around the new SiriusXm APP. I have 
found it easier to navigate by going to the library tab where my favorites are, 
or going to search and manually typing in a term or channel. Perhaps this will 
help in the short term until we can get the attention of SiriusXm's management.
