Although Sirius XM is a good service, the company does have its fair share of missteps. From overpriced and underwhelming promotions to unreliable customer service, the company can get a bit on the nose at times. So, before you sign up for a new subscription, it"s a good idea to do your research.

In particular, you should read the fine print and keep an eye out for bogus free trial offers. In addition, the company has recently agreed to make it easier for you to cancel your contract. You can do this by using a web-based form or calling your local car dealership. And if you are looking to upgrade to a higher-end model, you might want to take your business elsewhere.

Among other things, the company boasts an impressive array of technical features, namely, a robust online portal to download and manage playlists, redownload lost episodes, view your monthly bill, and even send messages to friends. The company also makes it easy to keep track of important information, such as the dreaded renewal reminder. This is especially important if you"re planning on bringing your favorite shows on the road with you. As far as perks go, the most impressive may be the fact that you can access Sirius XM at any time, regardless of where you happen to be in the country.
