XM Satellite and Sirius Complete Merger – NYTimes.com

Finally!  Now I’ll be able to listen to MLB games.  That’s pretty much all that XM had going for it, as Sirius has all the other sports, no commercial music stations, and of course, Howard Stern.  Welcome to all the XM subscribers!  Now you’ll hear what good satellite radio sounds like..

    Does this mean that as of today I can get all content on either system? This may finally be my tipping point on satellite radio.

    Not today. Looks like it’ll be early fall:

    “As a result of the merger, SIRIUS XM Radio will also be able to offer consumers new packages in audio entertainment, including the first-ever a la carte programming option in subscription media. In addition to two a la carte options, the new packages will include: “Best of Both,” giving subscribers the option to access certain programming from the other network; discounted Family Friendly packages; and tailored packages including “Mostly Music” and “News, Talk and Sports.” The first of the new packages will be available in the early Fall.”
