Default Preview Stream // 184

I don't know if this is new or not but the Preview stream seems to have changed. Today they have Kim Ashley and Jim Kerr giving all the special programming for today. It's much better than the last time I heard this stream and we even get to hear Mongo.

It evolved into more of a daily programming guide several months back.

I hardly ever listen, but it's good for those who want the highlights and don't visit the Sirius website.

Sirius Preview Stream is ten times better than XM's, and it really gives a nice overview of not only the programming, but daily highlights as well.

They should make the Preview Channel the main stream they play in retail outlets, and make everything (including US-1) completely uncensored.

Definitely!

XM Preview Channel:
"Welcome to XM Satellite Radio. Radio To The Power of X. This is the XM Preview channel. To activate your XM radio call us at ..... or visit us at xmradio.com. If you have activated your XM radio please allow 10-15 minutes. This message will repeat every minute... Welcome to XM Satellite Radio. Radio...." and so on.

Absolutely, it's definitely more marketable, as someone is more likely to be drawn in by the quick clips.

I'm not going to make this into a censorship thread, but the new song US-1 is playing by Eamon called 'F**K IT' is completely botched.
