Your choice depends on what you want. Music-wise, both services are very similar and offer lots of good stuff. People have been saying XM channels have commercials, but I've never heard a commercial on the music stations I listen to (hard rock, alternative and heavy metal channels). For talk radio, XM has Opie and Anthony and Sirius has Stern as their big-name shows. Other talk stations are probably very similar (national talk radio shows). For sports, XM has MLB, NHL and contracts with the Big Ten/PAC 10 and maybe a few other conferences. Sirius has NFL and NBA and exclusive contracts with a few big-name college programs. Since I'm always home to watch NFL and NBA games, I prefer having MLB as I can listen to games while at work (XM carries every game). Equipment-wise, they're pretty similar at this point. They both have portable units now that are very handy.
As you can probably tell, I'm an XM subscriber and love it, but you'd probably be happy with either service.
