How much would you pay to listen to OnA and R&F?

[MJMANDALAY]

If you could just pick XM202 ONLY(no other stations),and it would play as it is right now with no changes, what is it worth to you per month?

[Arch Stanton]

Well, it is the only channel I listen to now.

[MAV]

just 5 dollars

[Thumbtack]

No one cares

[MAV]

No one cares
hi there troll

[boardsofcanada]

just 5 dollars

was just gonna do that.

[Ballbuster1]

Well, it is the only channel I listen to now.
It's not the only thing I listen to, but all of the music that I listen to
could be replaced by an I-pod on shuffle.
I really got XM for the show.
The price I pay now is probably fair. Anymore and I might just bail and
settle for the Free FM version only.

[GLENN_THE_TOOL]

i love the bbboys and have been listening since '99, but i'm not gonna be one of those dopes who say "I'll pay ANYTHING to hear them!" if the price got too unreasonable, i wouldn't be able to afford it and i have plenty of bills that take priority over a radio show. it's good where it is now, i can deal with $12.95.

[fuckwit]

Wont pay for that channel or any other separate anymore. Ill bail.

[Polack]

I already pay out the ass and 202 is the only channel I listen to. I won't pay higher than 15 for 202. I hate to say it but I would go back to the shit fm radio up here or figure out how to put mp3's on my radio in my truck and machine.

[d0uche_n0zzle]

Two dollars.

Well, it is the only XM satellite channel I listen too. I am in a great market, alot of choice for me on AM and FM, with sound quality that XM has not a candle to.

[Turfmower]

Keep it the same as it is now and screw paying extras to bail out Sirius and hoo hoo

[VOD]

How much is that audible thing? I might have to just download the show and listen a day late if it goes up any higher.

[XMScott]

2 bucks

[Amazingkaddycap]

Are you kidding, I would pay even more then $25, its not everyday you get to hear the best radio even to be on the airwaves. No one can compare to the almighty O&A.

[mikeybot]

202 is the only thing I listen to on XM, so I'd go up to $15 for it. After that, I'd have to find other methods

[BIG WAVE DAVE]

I'm paying for five units as it is....and honestly don't feel like I'm getting screwed; but we listen to alot of baseball too.
But you know what? I'd pay just to hear O&A...west coast. I myfi every day.
-I could be the '' day late guy'' on everything.

Same here.

[commish13]

I wouldn't, to be honest. I love being able to have O&A and R&F in my car as I drive to and from school, but it's not that important to me, since I usually listen to the music anyway.

I listen to the shows later on in the day at home via nefarious means.

[J. PETERSON]

No one cares
:haha7:
That was quick.
That's all I listen to, but the lil lady likes other stations.
But I'd be willing to pay......

I dont know.
Enough to hear my buddays :icon_cool

[BillyLiar]

There should be a $12.95 option on this poll. It's a good price, and I wouldnt want to pay more for XM.

I understand that there are other stations, and I check them out from time to time (usualy during the FreeFM breaks, or on the drive home when I dont feel like listening to the show again).. but I consider the rest of the channels a bonus. My ipod could easily replace XM for me if 202 weren't there.

[Arc Lite]

2 Dollars also.

[estrov]

It would be difficult to assign a value to just 202. Yes, I listen to it the most of any channel, but I don't know if paying for just 202 makes sense. With the cost of the radio and any monthly recurring fees it is expensive when a free FreeFM alternative is available even in limited form. MLB is the only other exclusive that I value with XM.

Long term I see O&A moving to FM. If the merger goes through, it is my opinion that they will chase the money and move 100% to FM. Why not, larger audience and more opportunity.

[flyerfan116]

I've taken the liberty of fashioning a letter should this occur...

Dear satellite radio providers,
Please do not expect us to shell out more cash in order to hear the shows we love. If this happens I see a revolt the likes of which you pig fuckers have never seen...mailboxes full of cocks, voicemailed FU's, and other horrors too painful to mention...please consider this before making any rash decisions.

Your friend in Jesus,

I picked $10 a month. I only listen to 202 now while paying $12.95, so if I was dropping all the other crap I don't listen to, I'd still be willing to pay $10 for just 202.

My biggest fear is they make you pay a base fee of like 7 - 10 bucks, then take something like an "Extreme Talk" package that gives you O&A, Ron and Fez, Stern and Bubba. I see them thinking of something like that to try and force all the O&A fans to take Stern too, there by helping the new merged company pay for his 500 million dollar mistake.

That would really fucking blow and I'd bail.

[Cunty McShitballs]

I pay for 2 subs and listen to 202 90% of the time and XMU the other 10%

If they took all of the channels off except 202, I wouldn't give a shit...I have other outlets to replace XMU.

So, worst case scenario, if in some bizarro-world where O&A were kicked off of free-FM and XM, and had to so some Internet streaming shit (and charge high dollar to offset the lack of a built-in customer base) I would pay upwards of $50.00, no problem.

[notmikeh]

I could see paying 10 bucks for the boys... wait is this on top of the XM sub?

this too is my fear and is why I decided to keep my audible subscription. I shant be paying for Hoo Hoo or Bubba the Cunt...I wish Ron and Fez were on Audible.

[TheDrip]

I only listen to baseball and 202 and occasionally when there's a bit on 202 that's slow, I'll flip to 150 for a couple minutes. For music I have my ipod.

[BigWilly]

<camera zoom in> One billion dollars. <insert pinky finger into mouth>

[Maldoff]

5 bucks

[Bralio]

well let's see... I pay what, $12.95/mo now? That's pretty much the only channel I listen to, so that'll do.

[Gonzoid]

I am with the majority of folks here. $12.95 is enough considering I only listen to 202 with an occasional ESPN radio mixed in. I have had XM for 2.5 years, and I still think the music stations blow.

I still do not think this merger is a definate. I am holding off all judgement until I get a letter in the mail. I might go up to $15/month total...that would be my limit. I hope that the compnaies are paying attention though. Any significant increase in sub price could see massive defections.

[lucky]

I would probably pay a little more than I do now if they got rid of the crappy radio hacks Ron and Fez.

[patbattlefield]

:fight6:


I would pay 15 for 202 only.

[LilAdamWalsh]

I would pay any amount....just as long as I would get my O&A and R&F. Of course paying alot would mean the boys would have to do alot more AFRO shows.

[Absolutely]

If owning XM was the ONLY way to get RnF and OnA...
I think I would be willing to pay like 50-75 a month or around there.
They're a good 5-7 hours of my daily entertainment, I'd probably cancel cable tv, so i'd have that money to throw at it.

Now what would happen if O&A and R&F made it on TV???

[Absolutely]

Now what would happen if O&A and R&F made it on TV???

Then I'd just have to buck up.
But we all know they're in radio for a reason.
Ya know... Faces for radio! :rolleyes:

[LilAdamWalsh]

Faces for radio....but Jimmy is so fuckable

[Iron Duke]

Thats why the lifetime sub was such a great idea.

[Dave11]

I voted the highest #, $25 per month, but truth is I'd probably play a huge amount. I'm very productive listening to them. I might pay $100+ per month, and that just for streaming internet of their shows.

[westben2002]

(Paul O Impression) Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars

[WOWmagnet]

I hope it goes up to about $50 American.

Sort out the rif-raf (whiners).

[Cunty McShitballs]

Yeah, it probably will do that. But then it also will create a whole new class of whiner (the I pay 50 dollars a month so you better do everything I say whiner).

[Bill]

I currently have two receivers (an XM Commander hardwired in my car and a Myfi in my office) and listen at home using XM Online and an FM transmitter.

Right before the last price increase, I paid about $500 (I think) for a 5 year subscription for the primary receiver ($8.33 per month) and I'm paying $6.99 for the additional receiver monthly. The only channel that I listen to is 202. So, right now, I'm paying $15.23 per month to listen to O&A and R&F.

If they are still on XM when my subscription expires, I wouldn't have a problem paying $19.94 ($12.95 + $6.99) to listen to 202 on my two receivers.

[tellmfredwhowho]

I would pay $12.95..since I dont listen to anything else on XM as it is, why change?

[Jack Russell]

Id pay $15....I listen to 202 almost 90% of the time. If I could only have 202, I could get my news and weather from AM radio.

[TeenBungle]

for only o and a... 5 bucks. which surprises me that i say that. to get o and a and ron and fez i'd pay up to 10 to 15 bucks.

btw some of the posts you ppl have made is the kind of thought process that has always bugged me. I don't get ppl that can get their music fix from an ipod. i own an ipod. i fucking love it. but where else can i find new indie, or unheard music other than some of the stations on xm? besides going to concerts religiously its hard to find music i don't already know. maybe it's because i gow tired of music quickly and need to hear something different. i fucking love XM The Verge, XMU, some of Ethel, some of Fungus, and a bit of Liquid Metal.

[lilsurlytrucker]

that channel's the only one i listen to anyway.

[Angelfuck]

I see where this poll is going :rolleyes:
I said $5 even though as it is Im paying 10-15 to listen to o&a

[nneptune]

I got XM originally for its music content.
I would shell out some extra $$ for OnA, though.
I don't see why it would be any more than a couple of "dullarsss" if it ever goes ala carte again.

[Earth2murf]

i would give a kidney for a lifetime sub

[Lil Precious]

I dont think that this thread is a good idea...

If the merger happens and Mel sees it he will R@pe us!

[Dr. Hoffman]

I dont think that this thread is a good idea...

To late, I see there are people willing to pay 25 dollars for Opie and Anthony. Consider it done when I merge these companies. :action-sm

[WOWmagnet]

I didn't see a selection for $32 dollars, which is how much I would pay.
