[Electronics-talk] Sirius-XM over the Internet

Tue Nov 17 16:58:52 UTC 2015

			Get an Ipad or Iphone. I suspect that Sirius has figured out what devices are being used to stream the most and kept their apps current. 
Your other option is to get a Sirius receiver and plug it in and use it that way. 
No way would I let this nonsense go on at my house, I'd either come home with an Ipad or Iphone (you can get them very inexpensively if you get a cell contract) or I'd come home with a Sirius receiver. 
Point being, you've got lots of options and the rule in our house is that if the light dependent folks can use it, so can I.

Yes, it is what Sirius charges, but it's $4 a month extra on top of the subscription service in the car.  I can't use it, but others in the family who are sighted can access it.  I don't have a smart phone or iPad or IPod so I can't use the app, but my son does.  I don't think he has the app though.  Will have to tell him.  So far, no one in the house has used the Internet streaming.  Wish I knew this before I signed up for the Internet streaming.

     You didn't pay extra, you paid what Sirius  charges. 
 I use it on my Ipad and it works
 fine.

 This is sad!
 It surely used to be JAWS friendly!
