Apparently these were statements from Gary on Twitter:
"our channels are excluded from the iphone app because it infringes on our deal with indemand. sorry about that."
"we weren't positive about it until fairly recently"
"complicated legal but basically about platform: stiletto is siriusxm, wifi is user equip, but iphone is specific 3rd party w video potential"
I didn't see that one coming. And I don't see those statements up anymore on Twitter so take it with a grain of salt.

well, I can see this siruation being complicated. people are still working their way around new technology.
the whiners just don't get any of that. They don't don't get that unless an artist takes hold of a technology theu will find themselves with no income from their work. and I know the sfn assholes will bitch that Howard makes tons of money so why does he need morre. That's not the point. SOMEBODY is making money from Howard's broadcast. Crap radio made a shitload of money. So why shouldn't Howard?
I say if an artist can get the money, he/she should take it!
fuck the haters!

I don't know about this whole artist shit, but I pay for two subs and there's no reason ANY of it should be excluded from the iPhone. I have a laptop so if I'm staying at a hotel using their wifi and I get the stream via the web site, isn't that mobile? It's a bullshit excuse and a bamboozling of epic proportions.

Like Brent said, you're better off with Pocket Tunes.

If Sirius XM and Howard were just upfront and honest it would solve quite a few problems. But Sirius has never been known for being upfront with their customers and just surprise them with channel updates and other things.
