Why does SiriusXM exist?
- mikestew 3y agoFor those times when you’re driving in the middle of nowhere, and your ‘52 Studebaker can’t pull in any AM radio stations. Otherwise, since the advent of smartphones, I have no idea how Sirius stays in business. Live sports, I guess. I’ve had satellite radio, and when I think of SiriusXm, at the front of my mind is what a pain in the ass it is to cancel. We bought a new car this year, and I didn’t even activate the free trial because I didn’t want the hassle of canceling later. Think about that: the UX is so bad, there are customers that won’t even use it if you give it to them.
