SiriusXM® satellite radio and Netflix are two of the most popular subscription-based services. Even though the services offer different types of entertainment, they share some qualities that made them successful. Here’s a list of 4 of those qualities.
1. Original Programming
Netflix isn’t only a subscription service, but it’s also a production company. It produces its own movies and shows that can only be watched on Netflix.
SiriusXM has exclusive content, too. It has exclusive rights to some popular radio shows, like the Howard Stern Show, Elvis Radio, and the Weather Network. In order to access these channels, you have to subscribe to SiriusXM.
2. Streaming On Demand
Unlike with cable TV or local radio, you can enjoy your favorite programs whenever you want with Netflix and SiriusXM. Whenever you have free time, you can log into Netflix and watch whatever you want.
With SiriusXM, there’s SiriusXM On Demand. That means you can listen to some of your favorite shows whenever you want without having to stick to a schedule.
