I just got a 3 day free trial for XM and Sirius and what I noticed with Sirius Hits 1 is that they have to identify themselves after every song. I mean we know we're listening to Sirius, they don't have to announce it all the time. I find that somewhat annoying.
I've been considering satellite radio for some time now and I am slightly leaning towards Sirius because I think the music choices are better.

The identifying between songs can get to be a bit annoying, but from personal experience, if you're looking for more expansive music choice then go with Sirius, the diversity of stations is great and stations like Hits 1 are better IMO musically than XM counterparts.

IMO, Sirius Hits One is one of the few stations which Sirius does a better job on. The XM hits channels (20on20, Kiss, & Hitlist) all seem boring to me. For all other categories (Rock & Dance especially) XM is MUCH better.

For all other categories (Rock & Dance especially) XM is MUCH better. That's always been my perception as well. Sirius seems more familiar and repetitive, especially with the Dance channels. XM BPM just blows away Sirius's The Beat. I'd also take XM Ethel over Sirius's Alt Nation anyday. 20 on 20 has improved a lot lately, but Sirius still wins the hit music war, because there's just nothing like Sirius Hits 1 out there.
