Does anyone know the status of the Sirius and XM merge?

I heard it had like a 75% chance of going through, that was back in August
I have Sirius, but we have XM here at work and it seems to always be on the Blend (#3). It's a good station to think of ways to kill yourself to for 8 hours a day. I have Sirius my presets are:
1. Lithium
2. Alt-Nation (Emo-nation now)
3. Left of Center
4. Ungerground Garage
5. Boombox
6. Disorder
7. Coffee House
8. Backspin
9. ESPN Radio
0. Howard 100
I basically just liten to Howard all day though
Trying to remember my Sirius presets from memory:
1. Raw Dog
2. Super Shuffle
3. Area 33
4. Backspin
5. Playboy Radio
6. NPR Now
7. NBA Radio
8. Soultown
9. Hits One
0. The Pulse
I keep trying to activate Playboy radio, but eveytime I try it only works for like a day. I finally just gave up because I didn't want to sound like some cheeseball desperatly seeking hot sex over the radio
Spectrum
90's Alternative
Buzzsaw
The Vault
Left of Center

Bluegrass
Classic Vinyl
Classic Rewind
Outlaw Country
Jam On
1st Wave
Raw Dog Comedy
Did you call or did you do it online? I called and it took a few minutes.
Seriously, though, I listen to Afternoon Advice. Tiffany Granath is pretty funny and I usually enjoy the guests that come on.
If you have Sirius, this is a site you can't do without.

It seems that everyone I talk to about satellite radio has Sirius, which makes me wonder why they have so little subscribers vs XM. My mom and dad have XM just because of the cars they have, but I doubt they resubscribe. I only know one person (a guy I work withs son) that actually went to the store and got a XM radio. It seems like the people that have a choice choose Sirius for the most part.
I have both... but it was primarily for MLB. I keep it on as a secondary in case there's just nothing at the time on Sirius (I go to local NPR if there's nothing there, too). I've also been getting into the new POTUS 130 on XM.
As far as music goes, if you're really into music, it seems as though XM is the better choice.
sirius presets:
alt nation (now playing the same crap all day with painfully annoying djs (aka madison)
octane
lithium

XM is standard equipment on a lot more cars than Sirius, thus they have more subscribers.
Sirius Presets:
1. Howard 100
2. Howard 101
3. Reggae Riddems 97
4. Punk 27
5. Underground Garage 25
6. Coffee House 30
7. Hard Attack 29
8. The Pulse 9
9. Sirius Hits 1
10. 90's Alternative 24
howard 100 + howard 101, especially tuesdays at midnight and things of this nature, you understand
Oh, and my presets, off the top of my head:
1. Sirius NASCAR 128
2. Blue Collar 103
3. Hair Nation 23
4. Buzzsaw 19
5., 6., and 7. : Three of the classic rock stations around 14 - 17 (can't remember which exact ones)
8. Sirius Roadhouse 62
9. Prime Country 61
10. NFL Radio 124
Exactly, and they do count their free 90 day trials in new cars as subscriptions.
I do believe, uh, that I do, uh- get your, uh, drift.
I've heard that Sirius is pretty much going to take MLB and ditch most of XM. It won't happen right away, but the redundant channels will be eliminated.
I hope they keep 47Ethel. It's the only music channel on XM worth a crap IMO
For those of us that dont get Foxsports Radio, XM is a must have.
The Sirius Firefox Plugin is the ing best.
