Reply #113: Sirius is saying no changes planned for channel 144:

[Cooley Hurd]

I received this email from them this morning:

Dear XXXX,

Thank you for contacting SIRIUS regarding Air America // 144. At this
time, we have not been informed of any pending cancelation of Air
America // 144. Any changes to our channel lineup will be made available
on our website. You can find out more about Air America // 144,
including the programs and hosts that you will hear by checking us out

I have a feeling the AAR/XM agreement is a joint marketing exercise, NOT an exclusivity deal. The only source that says Sirius will no longer carry AAR is the mediaweek article, which is becoming more and more suspect...
