With regards to XM, I chose the lifetime subscription as I like the programming but have to agree the customer service could be vastly improved.

Here in Canada anyway, XM has chosen to outsource the call centre, so that the calls being initiated are not actually from XM itself, but rather from a marketing company which are relentless in their pursuit of resignees.
I think the marketing company only gets paid upon the amount of resigns, but I don't know this for sure and am only speculating based upon the relentless phone calls.
The calls for me started waayyyy before my trial was up and continued until I purchased the lifetime subcription.

As for on-star , I will never purchase that service as I don't think it is necessary

I was thinking of getting the lifetime subscription, what type of deal did they give you?
