Hello,

I want to express my disgust that the "punk" channel (29) has been replaced by the AC/DC channel. I think it's a poor move to replace a channel that represents an entire genre with one dedicated to a band that gets plenty of air time on other channels.

You are hurting your reputation with the tail end of Gen X up through Gen Y.

that sux, the punk station would be the reason i got sirius.

i hear there's a mysterious area where you can post OT information without having to put OT in the title. it's called OT


and the AC/DC channel i believe is only temporary. don't know if they plan to bring back punk after but from my understanding the ac/dc channel is just a promotional thing to ring in their new album

I don't have sirius, but that's probably the only channel i would listen to. I may write anyway, just for the hell of it...

XM radio did a similar thing. there is a dedicated channel that plays only one band for a certain period of time.

There was like a whole month or so of led zeppelin. It was awesome.

I would guess that the AC/DC channel is Temp due to them releasing a new album soon and they have not release one in a very long time.

One way to look at it is this. They would only replace a channel that had the lowest amount of listeners. Thus how bad was the Punk Channel when the Martha Stewart Channel has more listeners

Not knocking Punk BTW just using common sense.
