It seems that Sirius makes an attempt to satisfy as many demands they can, judging by the wide variety of programs. And having all of these benefits, Sirius is a very determined challenger for the XM.
 
Compared with the XM, the Sirius satellite radio has less quality in sound and the XM’s stereo separation is wider. Hence we all hope for improvement.
 
Re gadgets, XM has more technology than Sirius radio. There aren’t any MyFi’s, but instead Sirius has the XACT XTR1 that may be a limited movable version of the MyFi. And Sirius has no turners with TiVo-like features as the equipments provided by XM. There are firms like Alpine, Audiovox, Blaupunkt, Clarion, Delphi, Jensen, JVC, Kenwood, Sanyo, and Tivoli that produce Sirius hardware.
