They jumped the gun yesterday on the website and removed Jay Thomas from Sirius Stars schedule and slotted in Dr. Laura. It's now been corrected. Thomas people say Jay is moving to another channel. Thank goodness!
Anyone think nothing happens on the Sirius side tomorrow?

The only thing that MAY happen on the Sirius side is some name changes and channel repositioning.
As a Sirius sub, I am hoping we get some changes tomorrow. I don't want XM to have all the fun.
Its weird they are removing Disorder, I JUST started getting into it yesterday, tuned to it while relaxing in bed, and it played for 5 hours, really enjoyed it. I was looking forward to listening to it all week, I guess I just have tonite to enjoy it. Better setup the stiletto to record a few hours. I liked the mix of different songs, my ADD makes me change the channel a lot, so Disorder helped me with that, and showed me new kinds of music.

Just now listening to 'The Vault' and Pat St. John said:
Your listening to Sirius 16 The Vault . . Deep Tracks
Your listening to Sirius 16 The Vault . . Deep Tracks

Sherbet is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
If so the program directors need to be shot.
Why add confusion forcing longer ID's???
"This is Sirius XP 40: Deep Tracks"
not
"This is Sirius 16 the vault and xm 40 deep tracks"
I agree with late1. It's annoying.
Channel number changes are not a big deal. I really wouldn't mind if Sirius got all swapped up to match XM's leaked PDF file. Fine by me.
Less confusion.
Plus dual subs, renting cars, etc... you always know where your fav channels are.
So just say "this is deep tracks." There's no law that says they have to use the numbers. Maybe occasionally throw in a XM 40, Sirius 16 stinger like they do on the Virus or whatever.
I'm of the opinion that you guys will be getting the same exact lineup we XMers get. We'll see.
One way to fix this would be to just say this is Sirius Xm Radio or This is Deep Tracks and not give channel numbers. I mean people pretty much should know what the hell channel they are on. I always thought this was pretty stupid to begin with.
But it will likely be something like. This is Sirius XM Love Sirius channel 3 Xm channel 23.
Not sure of the actual channel numbers at this point. I don't think we'll see channels with the same content with different names totally.

I always enjoyed Fine Tuning more that Disorder, strange that they both got the axe.
I liked both, but Disorder a bit more. Unhappy that neither is surviving.
Hard Attack is gonna be.....Liquid Metal. Even SIRIUS' website indicates so:
The change has begun...and I'm beginning to believe more and more that the music channels (minus the Canadians, thanks to XM Canada and SIRIUS Canada) will be identical, other than channel number.

I've just heard a couple of things are changing on the talk side...Stretch is gone from Maxim 108. I saw something that said Jay Thomas might have a show on there now.
That's a confusing comment.
The XM channel guide has liquid metal.
Now the Sirius web site is confirming this.
So what is leading you to DOUBT that the music will be identical on both?
I was thinking the same thing. If anything it confirms the content will be completely identical.

The Canadian channels and the CC commerialized stations are probably going to be the only differences between the 2 lineups (other than numbers).
