Dear Sirius,

Please start using "Limited Engagements" on your internet feed, so that Deep Tracks can be uninterrupted on the internet feed.

Isn't that what the Limited Engagements channel is for?

Confused,
Kryptonite

Considering this was probably put together rather quickly with them finding out the Who would be playing at the Super Bowl, I thought it was ok. I heard a lot of lesser known tracks from the group.

However, I do understand Deep Tracks listeners being mad that their programming was preemptied. They could have played more of the Who songs during this time and still played the live halftime show but not go exclusively with the Who for five days. Probably the deal Sirius had to cut to get the live broadcast.
