Tesla just released a SiriusXM streaming app for the Model 3, Y, and Cybertruck. I’m a longtime SiriusXmM subscriber, and actually have a free streaming account with them. Ever since I got my MY I’ve listened via their streaming app on my phone & Bluetooth.

Not only will my current streaming account not transfer to the Tesla app, but I also can’t activate an old existing account with it either. In fact I can’t even add the Tesla streaming account to my existing SiriusXM account. They want me to create a new account on SiriusXM with a different email address just for the Tesla app. The fact that I’d have to create and manage a second account is downright absurd. Whoever approved that asinine decision at SiriusXM should be fired…

I guess I’ll just keep streaming their stuff through my iPhone…

    I actually enjoy their content, and I bet the satellite radios are really popular with long haul truckers, etc. since they get coverage virtually everywhere. No need to hunt for radio stations you like, or stretches in the middle of nowhere where you can’t get any radio.

    Where they suck is the way they nickle & dime people, make it a pain to cancel, etc.
