You can create your own radio stations. I have a GBH channel and it plays GBH, Bad Brains, D.O.A., Exploited and more. I also have a Beastie Boys channel that plays Beastie Boys, Public Enemy, Cypress Hill and more. Basically you put in a band name and it plays things that are like the band you chose. It's been pretty accurate so far. It's free and it works on you iPhone also, check it out. My profile is at http://www.pandora.com/people/sherizampelli if you'd like to add me as a friend. I think that way we can spy on each other's music choices. If it’s any consolation, I did find something pretty cool lately, it’s at http://www.pandora.com. You can create your own radio stations.

I will call tomorrow. I did e-mail and I didn't get a return at all. I will sign the petition too. I'm not happy with several of the XM/Sirius changes and I told my husband not to renew my subscription because of it. (Unfortunately, he already had). I know from experience that voicing your opinion does make a difference. Thanks for the reminder and you can count me in as someone who will call and let my voice be heard.

While it didn’t always give me what I wanted, it was great to have it. And no, the Faction channel doesn’t even compare. I’m not a kid either–I’m 38 and my boyfriend is 40, he’s also very disappointed. I’ve been checking around, and if there’s any channels you want to complain about losing, definitely give a call to Sirius Programming at (202) 380-2000. If there’s enough complaints there’s a chance they’ll do something about it. I’ve called 6 times. And I’ll call 6 more. The Google search says 390,000 people have searched “sirius punk gone.” THAT’S ALOTTA PUNKS! Call that number–I hear they’re not returning emails. It’s a punkers’ civic duty! Also...SIGN THE FUCKEN PETITION! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/bringbackfungus53/ We need to collectively make sure Sirius is aware that we as CUSTOMERS know this is unacceptable. Jon Zellner - SVP of Music Programming at Sirius/XM stated that they will “monitor customer feedback and re-evaluate early next year”. Voicing your opinion WILL make a difference. Please let them know so we can possibly get this reversed. Word 2yer Other...Pinx I am also not happy about the loss of our beloved Punk channel.

My subscription is up for renewal and we are considering a cancellation. If enough people complain it might make a difference. If no one says anything, it will happen again and again.
