XM is worse, on SUnday when I had a rental car, they went to the continuous loop of game times. Its unbelievable

Bill..
I know on the XM side, they run out of bandwith when there are a full slate of baseball games. XM has more Sports channels but are still limited to the amount of stuff they can feed through the system. On the Sirius end, I don't know why they're doing that when they can be using the live audio from HRTV for afternoon coverage of the races. I'll let programming know. A lot of times they have a schedule in front of them and just throw switches without realizing there is a better option.
