I read a letter put out by Tom Taylor about radio. The changes were stated 
there. SiriusXM is controlled mostly by Liberty Media now.

Management has changed?  I'm impressed!  Seriously…  How in the world did you 
know that?

I wonder if it’s time to try snail mail again. Management has changed. I wrote 
to executives several years ago about this issue, and I never heard back.

Good morning Rick and Judy,
 
  Has anybody tried sending a "snail mail" letter to their headquarters office? 
 I would like to think that somebody at the top would be horrified if they only 
knew.  Personally, I wish the merger had never happened.  If Sirius had done 
this on its own, and the XM Player had stayed in it's totally accessible 
awesomeness, than I think our "running to the hills" would have had an 
enormously different effect.
 
Thanks for keeping it real,
 
Paul

If there were some way to get past these customer service people. I believe 
that SiriusXM needs to be informed about this problem, but how do we do that?

Hi everyone:
 
This morning, when I went to log into SiriusXM online, clicked on the “listen 
live” link, I was taken to a dialog box where I could be invited to try the new 
beta player, launch the current player, or, “no thanks, don’t invite me again”. 
At first, I launched the current player, and told it to remember me. Then, 
curiously, I tried the beta player, and, I fear that if this is what it’s going 
to be, there is virtually no accessibility whatsoever, as far as I can tell. I 
then tried to launch the regular player again, and it continued to lead me to 
the beta player with no other choice. After restarting my PC, thankfully, I was 
again led to the current player. So, I maintain that at least the current 
player is doable, albeit not having all the features, but at least it is 
accessible, which the beta player is not.
