Sirius App- Guys (and Gals), lets work together to get this done!

Wood11 · 07/12/2009, 07:47 PM

So I emailed Sirius Customer Care yesterday to inquire about a Sirius XM app for the Pre like the one on the iPhone. By the sound of the response, if we can get a strong enough voice to puch for this, it may happen. Here's what I wrote and the responce from Customer Care:

ME-
"I just wanted to know if there were any plans in the works for
there to be a Sirius XM app for the Palm Pre on the Sprint network like
there is with the iPhone. As a long time subscriber, I would love to be
able to listen to Sirius on my phone. The Palm Pre is an amazing device
that is very competitive with the iPhone, and will do very well. The
application store for the Pre is still in beta form, but apps are going
to start rolling out soon. Anyways, just one voice speaking for many
that a Sirius XM app would awesome on the Palm Pre. Thanks."

Customer Care-
"Dear XXXX,

to SIRIUS on your Palm Pre. We are here to assist you!

Yeah, hanh?

byrde · 07/12/2009, 08:20 PM

I would love to see a Sirius XM App. I'll shoot them an email tonight.

gigaorg · 07/12/2009, 08:24 PM

Would like it too, but I am thinking that flash will change the game here (somewhat). We will be able to stream this way. That said, it would be nice to have a dedicated app with a headless app in the notification bar.

Doug30 · 07/12/2009, 08:59 PM

What the email addy? I'll hit em up

Wood11 · 07/12/2009, 09:05 PM

I don't have enough posts to put up the link, but just go onto the Sirius site and contact customer care.

DrNoah · 07/12/2009, 10:03 PM

I had the same reaction when I saw that Sirius released an iPhone app. I just fired off a letter to customer service. Hopefully they take our requests seriously and look in a Pre app.

NACH · 07/12/2009, 10:29 PM

email sent. This would be awesome

Chris

imex99 · 07/12/2009, 11:07 PM

Email sent!! Hopefully they get an application out to us soon...

rposa · 07/12/2009, 11:33 PM

I cancelled Sirius/XM. Why? Because they fail.

Actually, I have a (in my mind) legitimate gripe. XM Comedy 150. They changed it from a great format with Sonny Fox leading, to some lame *** (In my mind) Sirius Rawdog format. It all of a sudden got "unfunny" -- I wanna listen to uncensored comedy.

One friday evening some ******* who has a show was crying and whining about how he helped Steve Martin out and blah blah about this and that as to why this guy rocked and Steve Martin's agent could suck a goat.

I called the # to the show, and said "Y'know I'd really like to listen to comedy, not some yodel crying about Steve Martin."

No, "Hey, I'm sorry our employee was rude." or "Hey, we're working on the format." Nothing.

They can go **** up a rope.

The lady was like "You just called."

"No, Ma'am I did not."

"Well someone else called. This is SIRIUS RAWDOG blah blah show. We've been doing it for years and we're not changing. "

"You don't have to be rude."

"I'm tired of hearing how much we suck. You must be an XM'er. We're a SIRIUS show."

"Yeah, and I pay XM to hear XM stuff. Not pay XM to hear Sirus stuff."

"Well then cancel your subscription."

So I did ...

Oh, yeah -- they gave me three free months. Which didn't matter, since I ran over the receiver with my truck.

But the most I could get out of (THREE, COUNT THEM, THREE) customer service reps was "I'm sorry for your inconvenience."

mcnutty · 07/13/2009, 12:22 AM

whahhhhhhhh...

I would love a Sirius app. email sent.

pavvento · 07/13/2009, 12:26 AM

It took them a year to get an app for the iPhone, it'll be interesting to see if this comes out any time soon.

Aridon · 07/13/2009, 12:53 AM

When flash comes the regular site should work.

While that's true, it is nice to see certain companies, like MLB being proactive and making their web services available without flash. I hope others (such as Sirius) follow suit.

I agree with you on that. I was an avid listener to XM150 (all I listened to on XM, really) and loved it. When Sirus joined up in the mix they screwed everything up. I have no need for RawDog (most of it isn't funny at all), and whatever that other channel is. I spend my time now on BlueCollar Radio and Comedy USA when the kiddo is in the car...

Frrrrunkis · 07/13/2009, 08:54 AM

I will definitely send in an email to Sirius/XM. I expect that they will release an app for the Pre, it's just a matter of time. My plan is to get rid of my XM receiver in my car so that i can mount my touchstone and use my Pre as my only media player in the car. I find myself listening to XM basically all the time in the car and until there is a Sirius/XM app on the pre, I can't dedicate my mount to the Pre exclusivelym although I am working on a way for the two to be interchangeable.

Wood11 · 07/13/2009, 12:31 PM

That's what I want to do. Just place my Pre on the Touchstone and use it for Sirius, Pandora, Nav, etc. I'd take out my Sirius receiver and give it to my brother or something.

For what it's worth, I listen to Sonny Fox's show every morning on SiriusXM (I came from being a Sirius subscriber). Yes, it's on in the mornings. I have no idea if it's the same as what you used to hear, however.

I don't know, but I find that most of what I hear (with the exception of that Friday Jim Bruer show) is "uncensored" standup comedy.

(I know... off topic...)

Rhody · 07/13/2009, 02:36 PM

I sent an email and got the same response as the OP.

It's funny that people have been listening to Sirius on WinMo phones for years and now they're advertising the heck out of the iphone app like it's an amazing new development.
