8 Reasons why the new Sirius XM iPhone app is rip
Some of you may have noticed that today Sirius XM, with some exuberance, released a streaming radio application for the iPhone. Apparently it’s such a huge event that both Sirius’ and XM’s web sites are plastered with the news. While I don’t have an iPhone I don’t need one to know how awful this application is.
1. You already have all of the music, and more
Chances are your iPhone is already filled to the brim with music. Whether through a store like iTunes, ripped from your CDs, or a illegal sources, you’ve already found the music you want to listen to. Why instead would you want to listen to a glorified FM channel? Sirius XM’s iPhone app may offer over 120 channels of content but the average listener doesn’t frequent more than five or six channels.
Even when you do tune in you’ll find a rather shallow playlist.
