I didn't see this posted anywhere else, so this pack must be new. When I went to add my weekly add on pack, I noticed a new Sirius XM pack for $6. I have the Flex package.

That's a nice addition for those that like the music channels!
$6 for just the music? Considering what SiriusXM charges on their own, that's not a bad price at all.

I pay 9.99 for the only music pack for my car. I really only listen to music in my car , so I wouldn't need another version on my tv.
Got to be honest, I probably spend more time listening to SIRIUSXM on my TV lately then I do watching TV.
When I was doing the big update here... SIRIUSXM was blasting in the background.

I guess AT250 has it, but I never listen to it. The only way I would want it if they have had the news & talk services.
I only listen to three channels on SiriusXM and none are music, so this doesn't help me. But good for those that want it.
I don't see it on the Dish website anywhere, but I do see the Sirius XM pack is on their channel lineup card

Its listed at the link below, if you go down to step two, channel packs:

We often listen at home especially on weekends with it as part of the Top 200. The existing customer discount and SiriusXm was part of the reason I didn't get Flex. Eventually if I get Flex $6 for us would be very much worth it, just that and locals year round. RSN's for part of Baseball season.
Is Sirius/XM still included in the $10 Latino Bonus Pack, or was it removed with the creation of this new package?
Too bad Welcome Pack cannot add the Sirius XM pack or the Dish Latino Bonus Pack. :/ I mean what is the point; it looks like you can only add it to the Flex Pack.
It does seem that the $5 programming change fee does apply to this pack. Hopefully, it's just a bug.
Hopefully so.....If not, that would not make the Flex Pack very flexible then. If so, I would advise one to add the Latino Bonus pack rather than the $6/ mo Sirius XM pack as it also has the Sirius XM channels with some additional channels. I wish we had the option for either the Latino Bonus pack or Sirius XM pack with Welcome Pack. It is like telling Dish take my money, but they will not allow it with Welcome Pack although the site says it can be added to any English pack. The site is: https://www.dish.com/latino/ It states: "Add for $10 to any English package, including the new Flex Pack." Last time I checked Welcome Pack is an English package.
Other members have reported being charged the $5 programming change fee for dropping Latino Bonus Pack less than 30 days after adding it, so it would not make a difference either way if you are only trying to avoid the programming change fee. There does not seem to be any way to avoid that fee with Sirius/XM, other than keep the package for at least 30 days.
I also wish we could get Dish's Sirius/XM pack by itself or in addition to Welcome Pack, especially since Sirius/XM regularly offers all of their channels for the discounted price of only $5 per month. ($25 for five months, or $30 for six months) My dad recently purchased a new vehicle, and he still gets phone calls from Sirius/XM trying to get him to sign up.
