Title: XM Radio - Big East Channel
Post by: StillAWarrior on July 15, 2008, 11:52:45 AM
Just got a new car with XM radio with a three month trial.  I saw that there is a Big East channel.  There's nothing on it right now, but I was wondering if it's any good during basketball season.  Does anyone have any experience with it?

It's ok, nothing earth shattering.  I'm actually dealing with XM corporate this morning because they just pulled down 7 XM channels (4 of which we carry here for DIRECTV customers).  With the pending merger coming up with XM and Sirius (if it goes through), things could change quite dramatically on the content front.

But for the most part, the ACC, Big East, etc channels they have are limited to just a few games.  Their baseball package coverage is outstanding, not so much for college hoops....too many games they can't cover due to limited bandwidth.
