Anyone think nothing happens on the Sirius side tomorrow?

No change, yet, on Sirius.:scratch:

Off topic: Why a red button next to my name?

Strange, not even the same songs being played on the duplciate channels?

Maybe XM just switched names and numbers over, but not simulcasting anything until Sirius switches?

Or vice-versa -- i.e., the "new" channels (with the same name as existing ones) are in place on XM but aren't being uplinked to the Sirius sats just yet. Which would indicate it's not just a simple simulcast of existing channels.

I heard Lucy die. It was a switch mid song into Lithium. But not the Lithium currently on the Sirius sats. My guess is when the 4am update happens, this version will be synced into Sirius. For the next 4 (well make it 3) hours we probably have 2 Lithiums.

I've heard people rave about these XM channels and was actually looking forward to hearing some of them. Why not keep unique channels like Lucy around?

Any word on more Sirius channels on XM playing anything differently from its Sirius version?

Listening to Faction 28 now, and Tony Hawk just finished up his Bababooey interview and said "Right here on....Not just 28 anymore...Faction, siriusXM."

I know this is a taped show and a repeat, but that was my first witness of hearing a Sirius DJ say that. Anyways, is Faction or Alt nation, Octane, etc also playing different things?

Totally 70s/70s on 7 were synced up already-I ad my Stiletto on as well as my inno at the same time and outside of a few second delay, the exact same programming was on...

When I went to sleep last night neither Lithium or Classic Rewind were in sync. ClassicRewind is within seconds now.
