Default XM Weather - Sirius merger with XM Radio

Sirius is making headway in merging with XM Radio.
No one seemed to be asking at the Anti Trust hearing whether or not Sirius
will continue to maintain the XM aviation weather services.
Or if they do, at what cost to the users ?
I would imagine that this will be another User Fee that is going to affect
our costs of flying safely.


Oh.. gosh.. I guess we can just go back to how it was a few years ago,
where we had to fly without real-time in-cockpit weather on a MFD. Oh..
wait.. thats how I fly now.

I dont see any change to the cost of my flying, since I don't use their
product. Safety is in the eye of the beholder.
