      Sirius/XM Merger: What Happens if It Doesn’t Happen?
      From what I read, XMSR sold interest in the canadian company. Maybe I took it the wrong way, but it seemed to be clear. As for the rest it, it is all about what I was talking about which was the avenues of financing, each of them had left. Does it put more risk on them, of course but considering it is most likely all that would be needed before they became profitable, I think that makes the reward worth the risk. For instance would I mind as a shareholder that XMSR deluted shares by 50 million more to become profitable, NO.

      birdman264, I can agree with alot of what you said but I also disagree with alot to. First of all XMSR has done things SIRI has not done yet and visa versa to get cash. Here are a couple XMSR has sold out of a major portion of their Canada partner, Next XMSR has also lease back their satellites taking a hugh amount of value from them, both of which SIRI has not done. SIRI on the other hand has diluted their shares, which XMSR has not done. I also disagree, I have been in both for along time and I will say this, I believe both are less of a gamble now then they were 6 or 7 years ago.

      I HAVE THIS TO SAY TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WANT TO BLAME THE REPUBLICANS ON THIS, WAIT TO SEE THE VOTE WHEN IT COMES IN AT A 3 TO 2 WITH ONLY THE REPUBLICANS VOTING IN FAVOR OF IT, AND THE 2 DEMOCRATS VOTING AGAINST IT. YOU CAN ONLY DRAW ONE CONCLUSION FROM THAT. DHAAAAAAAA MAYBE THAT MEANS THE DEMOCRATS WERE TO BLAME DHAAAAAA.

      yoyoYO, Sorry it took me so long to get to you. Yes it is easy, I know this much, if I was getting a fee from a OEM as they come off the line that is better then waiting until it is sold. I also know SIRI is paying nowhere near what XMSR is on revenew share, before the increase XMSR was giving GM half, now it is about a third. I know SIRI comes nowhere near that kind of revenew share.

      Also I have said I agree, that it is a shell game in accounting. One has better ARPU the other has better SAC, and so on and so on, all because of the way they count subsribers and the deferred revenew of it all.

      Yea thats right Neal Barkett, tell the guy that is telling the two democrats that they are being unreasonable about giving GTP a 20% stake in satellite radio. he needs to not give GTP a 20% stake. What a moron.

      birdman264, I felt you were a XMSR man so I in a sence was goading you. On something that has always buged me when XMSR tries to count the parking lot subcribers. It is a arguement I and others have with someone one Sirius Buzz, and I thought that person was you.

      thanksgovt, First of all where did you come up with, that the president gives a rats ass about this merger. I think the president could care less. As for the two democrats and the roll they play, read my other comments I have gone over that many many times also read the reuters article. I will repeat this though, I believe if the congress was controled by republicans right now Martin would have called for a vote a long time ago, and would not care id the 2 democrats were heard or not and would have been happy with a 3 to 2 vote.

      thanksgovt, as to it being the 2 democrats holding this up, yes it is. Why because it is easy, Martin has already said he expacted a decision on this by the end of the year. You have to ask yourself, why would he say that if he, A.) was not ready to vote on it, and B.) at this point, ready to approve it.

      As to the being president, that is realitivly simple, most (that does not include libertarians) want/like power and there is no more powerful job.

      birdman264, Did you read what I said, are you that dumb or what. I, in a nut shell, Said the numbers they give are the good ones they want to put out, they dont tell you about the bad ones, NOT AGAINST THE LAW TO DO. Especially when they get into a fictitious things like being able to count their parking lot subs. Please read what I said in that comment. Was it against the SEC not to give the ARPU when including the parking lot subs? ANSWER = NO, but they didn't give it did they. Something you would have seen if you would have read the comment correctly I gave on this.

      thanksgovt, you sound conspiratorial. First of all nobody (I only include the commissioners) at the FCC are taking bribes, you have to get real there.

      thanksgovt, and sompsonic, You both sound like dumb ass democrats that cant come to grip with what your own parties ideology is. Do ether of you read, why dont you read the Reuters article I told you about and then come back and try and claim that dumb shit. Where are you two going to be when Martin is hauled in front of a democrat congress, because the 2 democrats on the board went crying to congress and told them; we were not heard, we had plenty of other things that needed to be gone over, this merger should have never been approved. Are you going to write congress and tell them what they are doing to Martin is bullshit, some how I dought it.

      yoyoYO, Do you understand that SIRI ARPU is screwed because of the deferred revenew factor. Do you reallize that the way SIRI deals are structured are much better then the way XMSR deal are. Tell that to GM about being able to restructure its deal. I think they would say fat chance, they are sitting pretty with what they got, and are not going to give it up anytime soon. The only way they may is if a merger would happen, then maybe. yoyoYO you make it sound like it is a light switch that XMSR can just switch anytime, that is far from the case.

      I will agree, about both being creative with the accounting though.

      Stan, come on, there are planty of companies out there with enough cash on hand that could pay to get a bankrupt XMSR. You act like service will be interupted while they go through bankrupcy Like XMSR will come to a total hult. Did Northwest or any airline for that matter just shut its doors and ground the plans? Answer = NO, Vary few companies do. Your opinion may be true for retail as far as people going more towards SIRI, but the OEMs would not stop.

      dissappointed American, Try doing some reasearch first and blame the right people. Try reading the Reuters article I suggested you read first.

      My point is he blames Martin for this, yet Martin was the one saying that it would be decided by the end of the year. Martin cant help it if the democrats keep tring to slow this up, he cant help it if the two democrats keep wanting conditions that would not be acceptable to SIRI/XMSR. he cant help it, if the democrats want to pretend that they are the DOJ instead of the FCC. If he wants to put up a bitch note, then he should make sure the right people are the ones being blamed.
