Unfortunately Howard 100 and 101 aren't on the lineup for the Sprint Sirius. It's just some of the music channels. I wish it was the full lineup, that'd be fricken sweet.

why would Sirius offer the full lineup to Sprint users for half of what they charge regular subscribers? If you'd be willing to pay $12 or $13 a month for Sirius, I'm sure they'd consider it, but we all know the bulk of users would be too cheap to pony up for this...if you get a smartphone, you can stream mobile XM or Sirius through the windows media player and get a lot more channels...I've seen this on XM with the 6700...

Agree 100%. Both sprint and Sirius are foolish not to offer this option.

For $15 I could get the entire Sirius lineup on a standalone radio. For $20-25, I should get the same or more on my phone (in fact it should be cheaper as they both need to build subscribers).

My guess is that Sprint is either afraid of the FCC (content) or Sirius doesn't want to split the revenue. Very dumb not to make your most popular product available through as many channels as possible (see Apple Ipod for an example of how to market your product correctly).

So then give us the option of only buying the stations we want instead of all the other bull sht I would never turn on.
