Am I missing something here? I have a hard time gettiing into the Sirius thing when all a person has to do is create custom playists from music that is free on You Tube.

Hi, Sirius/XM is best for vehicles IMO. It allows for a commercial free source of music (lots of types) on the go. It also has some other features like traffic reports in some cities and talk shows, some news feed I believe as well. Anywhere. Very few locations are not good (tunnels, sometimes car washes, etc). For home use it is OK, but the actual sound quality is not as good as other sources. OK when reading a book, working on the PC and such. As you probably discovered it is not free. Figure about $.75 a day for one receiver, a bit less for a second one. Paying by the year saves money as well. I have both vehicle and home units. But then I don't use any other feeds. I don't want to be bothered to make up play lists.

Good Listening

I agree. Sirius is the best for vehicles. I've never used it in a home though, mainly because I don't really listen to the radio unless I'm in the car. I think Sirius is typically easier to use when I'm driving because I can control it on my steering wheel. I don't have to mess with my phone like I would with YouTube. I'm also lazy and don't like to create playlists. I would rather have someone else do the work for me. I can also listen to sports or the news with Sirius as well.

The trouble with playlists is that it requires planning and forethought. There isn't room for spontenaity and discovering new music, at least not easily. I do have some playlists, but I use them pretty infrequently.
