Here Comes The Satellite Radio Channel Lineup Change

It was high time for the two satellite channels to reconcile their lineups once they merged. And it happened tonight. Like, just now.

My online player was looking a little funky when I launched it tonight. When I'd flip to a channel, the usual features (name of song, artist) weren't there, replaced by "Now on Channel 'x'" notes. I didn't think anything of it; so long as I got my channel, and it's playing a song within the genre of what the channel was, I didn't pay any attention to it.

I knew it was going to happen overnight soon, I just forgot it was tonight. I thought it was going to be midnight, and I made a mental note to get on and listen to it before midnight. I got lucky; even though I forgot my mental note, I was on my laptop and using the radio player before 12 a.m. because I needed to blog my previous entry, among other reasons.

So all the stuff I saw and didn't see I thought was the radio player fucking up again. I was surfing porn, went to the bathroom to rub one out, then when I got back, I was logged out of the player. Wait a second ... I didn't log myself out. Boy, either I was masturbating for a long time or it's really buggin' tonight, I thought. So I relogin ... and now all the channels have changed. So I guess some time between 2:15 and 2:45 in the morning Central Saving Time, Sirius XM Satellite Radio did the switchover.

Now to fix the shitty online player interface. ...
