Just wondering.

I may take one radio offline since I don't listen to it that often. Battery
charging it constantly is a pain. Even then, it only works for maybe 30
minutes before it's dead again.

I have 4 radios on my service: 2 for me (I use one at home and one at
work), and 1 for each of my parents. Because my father is a long-haul
truck driver, his radio is almost a necessity. My mother is so-so on the
service.

So, no I won't cancel the service. However, I am taking the older of my
radios offline. I'll probably buy a docking station and carry the newer
radio between work & home.

I have two radios. One for work, one for car. I'm seriously considering
taking one out of service, and just carrying the other into the office
and back, same as I used to do before I splurged on a members only deal.

I'd extend the service to get a discount, but I want to do
month-to-month which doesn't appear to be an option for the lower price.
I don't want to give them a year's payment upfront when I have my doubts
whether the service will be around then....

I paid yearly in the past rather than monthly, but still I got a price
increase for one more year.

No, but I might over the changes to the programming.

Yup, canceled my two Sirius subs and one of my XM subs. Only two XM
radios are remaining.
