XM radio no longer commercial free

XM radio is now no longer playing uninterrupted music. They are now putting in little ads that I find very annoying. I want music only available for 24/7 that I’m paying for. I will play it at home, then just as I start enjoying the music at what I call a good listening level, the song will end and on comes one of their little announcements about what ever. I just had enough of it, shut it off and put on my own CD’s that has no talking. I find it hard to pay for something that is not what they advertise. We have it in the car and it recently became available through DirecTV which no longer offers the Music Channels that were commercial free. I wrote to complain to both and got automated responses. What ever happened to the human being that would reply when a customer has a concern or ask for what you are paying for.

I hope they get many complaints and maybe they would return to uninterrupted music.

Sorry but I had to vent………..

I love XM radio and compared to FM broadcasting there is no choice. I listen to XMU, The Loft, XM Cafe, and Fine Tuning and I have not heard these commercials you are talking about. I was disappointed though with Direct Tv only allowing to receive all the XM channels if you have a package plus or higher package. Sirius radio is being run by Mel Karmazin who ran Infinity broadcasting. Look how Infinity sounds like now on FM radio. Mel Karmazin will do the same and commercials will follow. How else will they pay for Howie's contract starting January. Ilove XM radio and I only have high praises for them.
