I've had Sirius for almost two years now and love it. Lots of sports channels, although both the SEC and NHL moved to XM this year, although occasional games are still broadcast on Sirius. They'll also carry the entire NCAA tournament! If you're into the NFL they carry every game each week, and most of those are home and away broadcasts. Great music channels, especially my beloved First Wave and the all Bruce Springsteen channel (which includes concert broadcasts two or three times/day!) Before Bruce there was an all Rolling Stones channel and an all Who channel. There are also dedicated channels for Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra and the Grateful Dead.

Oh, yeah, there's also this guy named Howard Stern who used to be on terrestrial radio and now has two channels on Sirius. I'll be honest, he's why I picked Sirius.

ETA: it's even cheaper if you go with a longer term vs. paying by the month. I think I'm paying less than $10/month by doing that.
