I am thinking about moving to XM from Sirius I currently pay 29.00 for 2 cars to have Sirius and 1 has nav traffic. For a 1.00 cheaper I can get XM and both cars have nav traffic... but I am wondering is the quality of sound just as good? Any info would be appreciated...

I have both XM and Sirius, and I like Sirius' programming better. Sirius sound quality seems to be better too. But XM NAVTRAF is nicer though. However, it's just my personal opinion.

Does Sirius have the traffic for the Z1-Z2? I saw something that they offered it but only on Alpine systems.

I have both in my car too, Sirius gets better quality and I prefer its programming over XM, but the display for XM is much better than the Sirius display, shame on Pioneer for that one.

I've used both in my car and can and can say for certain that Sirius sounds MUCH clearer. I was horribly disappointed when I moved to XM just to get NavTraffic and cool icons. I'm seriously thinking of switching back. =\

Well I did moved over to XM today and really I dont hear a difference but they seem to have more choices for music. I will save a $1 plus get NavTraffic in another car. So it will do.. Once the merger goes through I think it will be even better... Cant wait I have a lot of shares of Sirius... Thanks for all the feed back....
