If and when are Sirius and XM going to merge to become one?!
Question: How much are each of them seperate?
What are some of the perks of each of them?

They are two separate, publically traded companies. When they merge (should be soon, but that's been the question of the week for months now) each XM shareholder will get 4.6 shares of Sirius stock and the XM stock will be retired. The CEO at Sirius (Mel Karmazin) will stay on to run the new company.
Nobody's saying what the new service will be called. The SEC, FCC and FTC all have to agree and the NAB (radio's lobbying arm in DC) is urging against it. So it's kind of a mess, but most in the biz think it will happen.

hopefully it'll happen.I drive a gmc truck that has xm but i subscribe to sirius for Howard.it would be nice to have just one company that can be in all cars manufacturers.plus xm has the nhl now and sirius did last year.xm has baseball and sirius had nfl.the govt says it wouldnt be fair which is bull cause its a pay service.f the fcc
The problem is . Dish network and Direct tv are trying to merge. both have applied to merge. Dish and Direct tv were denied, this has prevented XM/Sirius fro being approved. I've heard that XM/Sirius are sister companies already, but have been denied to merge. It's like Mastercard and Visa, they are one in the same, but was made to split. I still have a credit card that says Visa/mastercard on it.
