Sirius/XM getting rid of punk channels

[aquaphase]

First XM announced that Fungus was being taken off the air as "redundant" with Sirius' punk channel, then Sirius went and turned their channel 29 punk station into the AC/DC station. I'm pretty pissed off.

All I want is the Elvis channel to come over to my XM.

thta's pretty jacked up.

Sorry, Justin. I knew about the new ACDC channel, but I didn't realize what it was replacing.

- Mere "bring on the LUCY channel from XM to Sirius because I am sick of Lithium, the all-Soundgarden-Alice-in-Chains-and-Pearl-Jam '90s alternative' channel" 1975

well mere, hate to break ti to you, but you'll get your fair share of those on XM Lucy's too.

My faves are Fred, Ethel, and Lucy. If those aren't floating my boat I move to XMU and then to the Verge.

At least you don't have the Metallica Channel.


When the hell is this merge? I need that Elvis Channel and I need it NOW!

That's pretty shitty - not quite the same in the convenience stakes but can you listen online to the Radio 1 punk show?
