I support this petition. I loved listening to the Sirius Punk channel, the music they played was far better than Faction's. I'm considering canceling my subscription since it was basically all I used to listen to. Please bring back Sirius Punk!!!
I support this petition. All I wanted my satelite radio was for punk music. Now it's down from a possible 3 or 4 merged stations to one shitty station. Faction is a completely different animal than Fungus, (Sirius) Punk, or Left of Center. I mean really what the hell? You're cutting off a popular demographic because you used to be the largest broadcaster of punk. Now it's either Cd's or shitty college stations. Thanks. I'd like my money back.
As a devoted subscriber to Sirius and avid listener of Punk channel 29 I support this petition. I'm saddened that you would choose to take the one punk channel off the air, but keep the 3 metal channels, etc. My only reason for subscribing to Sirius was for "all punk all the time". Without that their is no reason for me to continue to subscribe to your service, and would rather put the money towards punk cds for my car. And as a side note The Faction does not cut it. I don't want to listen to other genres in order to hear 5 minutes of punk. Please reconsider your decision and bring back punk 29.
I support this petition. With all the stuff on the sirus with less listeners than punk, there is no reason to get rid of punk. Trust me there is no lack of audience. Punk today is bigger than ever. People line up around the block for underground shows.
put punk back. serious, despite what the rumors be, and what the mainstream thinks of us, or is trying to do to us, we're still here, and bigger than ever.
I support this petition. Don't mind a little ACDC but enough is enough. Bring back the punk channel so us old people can still enjoy our music and let the young crowd understand what real "punk music" is (not the crappy stuff they play on the radio now!)
I support this petition. maybe 1 hour of ac/dc will generate new listeners and this would be good for their fans. ac/dc is heard plenty on fm which is tired/embarassing.
I support this petition.
Fungus was the best station on XM, probably 80% of my listening time was Fungus. I am seriously considering canceling my XM/Sirius account due to this decision.
I support this petition.
Faction is the worst channel yet. Why don't you just get Good Charlotte to host it, to really put the nail in the coffin. Idiots. The new programming is brutal.
I support this petition. Fungus 53 was the only reason I subscribed to XM Radio a few years ago. I wasn't interested in the 14 country stations or the other more-than-one channels that favored other types of music. Cut us a break and give the rest of your listeners something worth paying for and recognize if you dropped a country station or 10 you wouldn't lose business like the thousands of other potential subscribers that are here for 30 years of one type of music.
Sirius Punk is the only station in 25 years that got Punk right that wasn't part of a college radio broadcast. I am a Sirius subscriber and am re-evaluating how long that will be now. Sorry, the other stations that call themselves Punk aren't.
I support this petition.
I don't actually listen to Fungus, but I am an XM subscriber and every channel I enjoyed from their service is gone now. The 'replacements' they offer are formulaic and repetitive, and a couple of the channels I used to listen to have no comparable substitute (such as xL The Rhyme and The System). If I wanted FM music I would not have paid for sattelite radio, and I do not plan on renewing the service unless they bring back many of the original XM lineup. I understand the need for a merger but does Sirius really think they were so much better than XM that they can fire most or all of XM's DJs without a community backlash?
I bought XM specifically for Fungus (and the Ryhme,which is now also gone..). The appeal of satillite radio for me was programming that was not availible via FM radio,not to support payola stations like the all AC/DC channel. Faction as a replacement is a joke,the short playlist and repetition is rediculous. Sure,they play punk rock-after a lousy Linkin Park,Eminem or Seether song,they'll play Pennywise "Die for You" every half hour. It sounds like they've take 10 CDS,and play two songs off each one,all day every day. I cancelled my subscription the 13th. Threatening to cancel and petitions are great,but you have to hit them where it hurts...$$
I support this petition. Now that Fungus 53 is gone I have to listen to the "Faction'? What the heck is "action sports talk"? BRING BACK FUNGUS PLEASE! The reason I bought and continue to suscribe to XM was the lineup over Sirius! Now I dont have a choice? That merger blows.
I AM a XM subscriber. My subscription runs out in January. Without Fungus 53 I WILL DROP MY SUBSCRIPTION!
I cannot vote more forcefully than with my dollars.
Thank You,

I support this petition. i odered a lifetime subscription to sirius weeks before the merger took place. Had i known about the elimination of the punk channel from both companies,i never would have made such a foolish decision so hastily. Bring back both the punk channel and xm fungus. Its much need in a now rather bland sound scape.
One of the main reasons I got XM was Fungus, they are offering me a rate of $6.00 for 3 months of service, but I find myself listening to XM less and less each day I don't even think that's worth it.
We support this petition. My whole family listens to Sirius Punk, and it's a major reason we pay our subscription to Sirius every month. Also need to bring back Disorder if you want to keep subscribers-we can get AC/DC on about 40 classic rock stations here, we all got into satellite radio because of the diversity of programming.
I support this petition.I also am infuriated that sirius diorder is no more.I'm seriously considerig cancelling my subscription and buying an ipod for my car.
I've been waiting to see if a punk station returns....I'm giving it until January, and then canceling my subscription. The alternatives you suggest are cruel jokes.
