XMSR is the stronger of the two (XMSR & SIRI),with its broader portfolio of auto OEM's in a weakretail market. If the merger doesn't get approved,XMSR will be better able to survive. It's a win-win.

Where do you get your information from???? Siri is overall valued more than XMSR. Granted XM has more prescriber's and a better network than siri, but they have to spend more money to keep up there network as far as repeaters and additional satellites that were recently thrown into space. Along with having competition with Sirius Satellite there is more money dumped into advertising.I'm sorry to say but unless the merger happens one of the 2 companies will hit bankruptcy within the next 2 years the one more likely to hit bankruptcy is usually the company that is spending more money and valued less than its competitor.

I like this recent analyst report quoted on Forbes.com, it suggests the same thing: "Jacoby favors XM if the merger fails, as he thinks the company is likely to gather a 60 percent share of the original equipment manufacturer subscriber market over the next several years."If you buy your car from Toyota, Honda, Nissan, or GM, you will have XM. If you buy a Ford, Chrysler, or Jeep, you will have Sirius. With a large portion of the market in cars, I think XM will win.
