Would retentions make this deal?

[Doug Wilson]

I am not usually one to try and scam retentions to save a few bucks, but I am going to have to cancel either way since I am going overseas shortly and my present Sirius subscription expires mid-July.

I had intended to switch to XM upon my return, but if I asked retentions for a lifetime subscription including the Best of XM for the price of the regular Sirius lifetime subscription do you think they would go for it?

For a mere 100$, you would let go of Sirius during your oversees stay? Really? The free online listening of Sirius + BoXM lifetime is a very good deal, as it really is lifetime (you don't need equipment to listen). Unless it's too late for you to get that, of course (I don't know; I got my lifetime subscription over a year ago, when it automatically came with free online listening).

The internet available to me will be GPRS based, you aren't streaming anything over that.

Internet radio is NOT included with any new lifetime subs. You would need to pay $2.99/mo.

They didn't offer anything worthwhile, I will just have to see what XM is offering when I return to civilization.
