    Just wanted to make sure everyone was aware you can now add some Sirius channels if you have XM. You can get 3 months of the "Best of Sirius" for free with a 6 month paid subscription (includes all NFL channels, Playboy channel, 2 Howard Stern channels, NASCAR & the Martha Stewart channel).

    It's $4 more to add the 'best of Sirius'

    XM Service & Subscription - Pricing, Plans, Service

    It's nice having the NFL and worth the extra charge to me. doubt I'll listen to any of the other stuff.

    Now, if you could only get the MFD to not only display the Playboy Channel song titles, But, as well as Measurements, Favorite color and of course their plan for world peace. The photos as MFD SCREEN SAVERS would be a truely wondrous thing. As the MPG goes up so do Miss (Insert month of choice here) measurements on the MFD, XM/ Sirius I salute you !!!

    True, myself and a good percentage of other Prius drivers with this option would of course crash into something anything within the first 12 minutes of operation.

    What do you all think???

    I can hear it now: "But honey, I though it was on the Martha Stewart channel and they were going to show how to make a beautiful holiday centerpiece with leftover wrapping paper!"

    You can buy the Back Seat TV as a kit now. It's just kids programming right now though.

    Ahem.

    Anyway, you can now get XM in your Sirius as well -- they offer a "best of XM" package, with Oprah, Opie & Anthony, NBA, NHL, PGA, but not baseball.

    I thought there was a point to this thread when I made the first post...

    Odd that it doesn't include MLB...maybe next season? maybe not enough open channels? I don't know.
