Sirius XM iPhone App

Remember that iPhone app that Howard was discussing on the air. Last month it was denied by Apple. The company who made the app, and also made a desktop version of it, has been shut down and I think from Sirius XM directly. Here’s the way I see it:

    Yet another reason why Sirius / XM is on the ropes.

    Does this remind everyone else of Mac saying “YOU CAN’T CLONE US!”?

    If you are PAYING for a subscription….including online listening….What do they care how you listen to it? YOU ARE A SUBSCRIBER!

    Morons.

    Yeah F Booey, but now I would only need one account rather than two (or three or four) and can just bring my iPhone in either car…

  4. Siriusly says:

    Just as you could with a receiver, bringing it to “either car”.

    Nonsense like this is (one reason) why people just download the shows instead.

    Of course, you could see all this coming — the moment they began talking about the app on air I thought to myself there had to be a licensing issue involved at some point.

    A couple years ago, I used to unplug my receiver and transport it to work, to car, to home and you know what happened? The jacks on the side of the unit shit the bed from all the unplugging. And then I needed buy another unit and subscription.

    There was a comment on another blog that brought up a good point. Sirius could have bought the program from the company. Here you have a product that has already been built and tested but they just throw it away. Very short-sighted. Oh wait, they aren’t short-sighted, thats right, because they want to raise our prices another $5 a month and make you buy a $300 stilletto that sucks.

    i got my stiletto for 50 bucks on a sirius sale awhile back if that helps?

  7. artiefan says:

    Last year I bought one of those lower end Stilettos. It sucks. On the more expensive stilettos, there is some good features. But the one that only pickups up a satellite signal, its crap. You can’t get a signal.

  8. Arties Favorite Herpes Laced Hooker says:

    yeah that does suck thank god my work carries it.

  9. Arties Favorite Herpes Laced Hooker says:

    oh btw, can you sell SBG shirts? I would buy one and promote the site.

  10. artiefan says:

    Hah, that would be cool. I think I played with the idea years ago. There is someone out there that has a Cafepress site for Save Artie shirts or something, but I could never find a good solution. The shirt that I was wearing in the picture with Artie was made by http://www.iloveroadhead.com/

  11. Arties Favorite Herpes Laced Hooker says:

    could you make the same one on that site and share the link? I know im lazy when I say this but I really dont want to spend time doing it :)

  12. artiefan says:

    The cafepress one? I did make a cafepress site for SBG a while back, I will have to dig it out if I can find the time. Actually, I have been looking at other solutions for tshirt makers. Not necessarily for SBG, but in general.
    Thanks for the interest :)

    Come to think of it, awhile ago I had thought of bumper stickers and such. But then I didn’t want Artie to think I was trying to make money off of him. Obviously I couldn’t really use his name really.

    There was a guy who created a picture of Artie and sent it to me last year. It was awesome. It would have made a great T-Shirt. I tried to get through to Teddy about maybe having this kid make some product for Artie but I never heard back :(

  13. Arties Favorite Herpes Laced Hooker says:

    i meant the roadhead. (not sure if its worksafe here, was another factor) If you could awesome, if not, and I remember at home, ill try and make one up.

  14. artiefan says:

    Roadhoad makes all sorts of custom materials like shirts, bumper stickers… They made me the shirt as a favor. It’s not a cafepress site. You can’t buy a SGB shirt through them.

  15. Arties Favorite Herpes Laced Hooker says:

    yeah i looked into both at home. I was just wanting to get the one you had, Ill make one up sometime and post a pic when it comes.

  16. artiefan says:

    I have an additional XL shirt, probably only worn once if that. If you wanted a hand me down hehe

  17. Arties Favorite Herpes Laced Hooker says:

    xl’s are becoming tough to wear these days. *sigh* how long does it take to see a change dammit

  18. artiefan says:

    I did have 2 XXLs but I think they are given away if I find I will let u know
