What is SIRIUS Satellite Radio?

110 channels of the best entertainment and completely commercial-free music for your car, home or office.

SIRIUS has 65 original music channels, from today’s hits to R&B oldies to classical masterpieces. From authentic Country and real Bluegrass to cool Jazz, hot Latin, Reggae, Rock and many more. Best of all, it’s all completely commercial-free.

SIRIUS also has 55 channels of worldclass sports, news and entertainment. Included as part of your subscription, you get up to 16 NFL games a week, up to 40 NBA games a week and up to 40 NHL games a week. (Games are broadcasted during their respective seasons.) Coupled with great sports

news from SIRIUS NFL Radio and ESPN, the SIRIUS sports offering is

unrivaled. And don’t forget a host of other great news and entertainment, like NPR, CNBC, Fox News, Martha

Stewart Living Radio, Radio Disney , and the Maxim Channel.

With SIRIUS, the emphasis is on the music and entertainment you want. The music is hosted by SIRIUS Jockeys, who are true experts. They back-up the music with compelling information about the song being played, and they understand that sometimes it’s best to just let the music speak for itself.

Rely on SIRIUS rocket science for superior coverage.

Only SIRIUS has three powerful satellites that fly directly over the U.S. ensuring coast-to-coast coverage with high elevation angles. This gives the satellites a “clear line of sight” to your car or home, with much less concern for buildings, trees or other objects that might block conventional satellite signals.

Once you experience 1 10 channels of digital entertainment, you’ll never want to leave your car. For more information, visit www.siriuscanada.ca.
