The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I got tired of playing the "call just before the subscription expired and threaten to cancel" game a couple-three years ago, and the guy offer me a "special deal that only a few people get" for $7.99 (plus tax) a month permanently forever, no need to call ever again. Comes to $9.01/mo.

But now I'm not in the car very much, and for streaming at home we get Amazon, Pandora, and Spotify for free. And also Sirius has a pretty short song rotation, so they play the same songs 20 times a day. I have a 128MB flash drive plugged into the car with a few hundred hours of music, so I could get along without SiriusXM.

I'm just about ready to cancel the plan and insist on the $150 for 5 years deal.
