Okay, so I was going to post this in the GRRR thread, but I decided it needed it's own.
Anybody else subscribe to XM out there? They launched their new channel lineup today, and I am a little annoyed. They took away several of my favorite stations, channels have moved and some channel formats have changed. They even took away one of my favorite dance stations
NOW, the plus side to this is that I now get JamOn and The Grateful Dead channel...but I'm still a little bummed. I feel like Sirius/XM are yanking me around and I have no choice about it...they could've at least given subscribers a WARNING that the channel lineup was going to change!

We all got an improvement compliments of Sirius/XM, and I mean the same type of thing that my IT department at work does......an improvement for them (2 steps forward) means that I now move four steps back.
They changed a bunch of stuff on the Sirius side of the family. I lost a couple stations in the mix. I'll have to spend time reprogramming my player to stations that have things I like. Fewer overall choices probably, with sharing of channels to lower programming costs.
I liked super shuffle, so I'll try the Pulse, and Serious Disorder is not really replaced by the Loft. We'll see if the content is diverse enough for me, though Vince Scelsa has occasionally gone too far - Wagner (opera) to the Dead Kennedy's - that was just to far for me to handle.
Yeah...I just noticed today....do we XM peeps still have SQuiZZ?? cause that was one of my FAVE channels!! If not...I am gonna be PISSED!!
So...is there anyplace the new lineup is posted and maybe even a mapping from old -> new??
There's another channel that is doing punk now, I don't remember the name but it's something with a P.
You can find all the channel lineup changes on xmradio.com, apparently.
I lost channels on my XM too, if it makes you Sirius users feel better. I was seriously bummed about losing The System (my favorite dance channel) but I think Area is going to be an okay replacement.
