Well, that sucks. I highly oppose corporate mergers and there's no added benefit to this merger. Double negative. (And no, that doesn't make a positive.)

But it did in my Algebra I class!

Nope.

And no benefits for SiriusXM Customers or Pandora customers... its going to be business as usual going forward.

My understanding is this will help bring SiruxXM's online music licensing costs down.

Does this mean our Sirius Bill will go down ? LOL ...

Well, all my questions are covered. Still not going to pay for either service. Pandora because I'm a not a huge fan. SiriusXM because I don't have it in my car, and I'm not paying for it so my wife can listen to Hits 1, especially when she can hear the same five songs on Top 40 FM.

Which is why I flunked algebra.

Dont look for any real changes in either service with this deal.

The deal was done to save SiriusXM on online streaming licensing.

Think of it as buying in bulk, the more you buy the more you save.

Exactly!!

The free part?

Very, very doubtful. They already charge WAY too much in music royalty fees. I can't figure how offering something free would help offset this going even higher. I have mixed feelings about music. Yes, artists should be paid for their work. But thet make money off downloads (which would've been going into a store & buying the album..) Or goimg to Wal-Mart and actually buying the CD. Funny thing is, if I listen to Iheart radio app, yes there are regular commercials, but they do have commercial free blocks AND many other higher quality stations than in my local area even owned by Iheart radio

Pandora has been so flakey in linking to my Civic lately I hardly use it anymore.

Simple enough to listen to my own ripped music.
