Sirius XM Radio

Is it just me or is Sirius radio's audio quality trash? They gave me a 3 month free trial. I honestly stream my music between a combination of Apple Music and Pandora. With the latter two the audio is crisp and you can tell the quality is being played at a higher bit rate. Where as with Sirius radio the music sounds like its compressed and running 128kbs or less.

Makes more sense now. Well I am definitely cancelling my trial period subscription once the trial period is over.
