Then when I get home or on the weekend I hear the shows. I program it to record the show in 3hr chunks. However, that's really my only complaint. I bought the s50 when it first came out and 2 years later, I'm still in love with it. I bought it for Howard Stern and I got a good system going. It would be great if it could listen to a show while I record one.
Seems this is a problem item for them. Its great. But the lady at Tiger Direct allowed us to return it. If I need to carry music with me I will get an Ipod.
I bought the ST4 and had it installed. So I went through a series of support calls that ended three hours later with Sirius coaching me through an update of the unit's firmware using my computer and a huge software download from Sirius. The sound is excellent and it has all the features I need for alot less money. The box it came had stickers on it that said it could not be returned to the seller (Tiger Direct, via Amazon) which Sirius said violates their agreement with Amazon. Unfortunately, Sirius could not activate it. No luck. Sirius does not warrantee the radio for the first 30 days and will not accept returns during that time. So I went to Best Buy to get a working version, but they don't carry it.
You couldn't GIVE me an S50. I was really looking forward to my new S50. So the tech said to return it. The clerk told me they had problems with that model and don't sell it any longer.
Not only can you download your own songs but any song you hear on the satellite radio broadcast you can save as well. This single device has skyrocketed my exercising motivation and my daily joy of driving. Sleek design looks perfect in the Benz too. This is the most perfect creation since online shopping. Seriously, this is an amazing radio with the most spectacular, user friendly options. Shuffle the songs and you have an outstanding array of your favorites.
The only draw back that I see is that there are still national shows that have not signed on yet, but if you like sports, this is for you. You can record and rewind what you are listening to, plus you can load your own stuff. The sound, as well as the viraity, is great, and the preformance of the unit is near flawless. I haven't used it as an MP3 player yet, but so far it is a great unit. I am pleased with the unit. It functions well and looks great. I travel a lot and it it is great to have.
Now after only 13 months it has completely quit working and I have been told it is no longer under warranty. I'm having a hard time with this due to the fact that my previous Sirius radio (a Blaupunkt model) also broke down completely after 13 months. I purchased the S50 w/ both car and home dock when it was first available which set me back over $400 dollars. Sirius has told me to simply buy a new one.
