Just as. FYI. If you do activate radio service, you also get free streaming as well for your phone etc. Also if you have a google nest music device or a Alexa product, you can also stream on that once you connect your Sirius account to it. For example… you can say. "Hey google play Sirius XM channel (say the number or the station name)' and it will play it. It's super good .

The bitrate is about 64 kbps for music and 32 kbps for talk on Sirius.
The bitrate on Spotify HIFI/Tidal Masters is 320 kbps CD quality for lossless audio.
Use an app, connect a cable, and ditch the garbage audio of Sirius. (FM radio is 96 kbps)
The bitrate is probably somewhere between 24–48 kbps depending if the AAC variant is based on v1 or v2 of the HE codec. The sample rate of the played back audio is likely 32 kHz or 44.1 kHz which will yield 16–22 kHz of audio bandwidth.

Weird, but OK. They have featured artist stations every month or so. I can't stand Bruce Springsteen, but he had a channel for a while and I just didn't listen to it since there's like...I don't know...a hundred others?
"The firm's total SiriusXM users at the end of September stood at 34.3 million, including 32.0 million self-pay customers. Third-quarter advertising revenue at Pandora jumped 32 percent to $404 million."

You have to remember- Sirius radios are built in to nearly every car made today, and they usually offer a subscription. It gets people addicted and they continue to pay for the service as regular radio is unlistenable now due to commercials.
Lifetime subscriber here (thanks Alvarez lawsuit). Very happy with the service. Not paying is just the cherry on top.
(i only listen to classical music)
