Me too. I have a lifetime XM subscription in my old SC, and I would drop that if it were not paid for. Pandora and music from the iPhone are state of the art, and I find either preferable to XM. I have over 17,000 songs available in my iTunes account.

I actually told the dealer not to activate Enform, even though it's free for the first year.

Has anybody out there read the service agreement? It's basically you agreeing to let them collect whatever data they want on where you go and what you do using it, and to use it for whatever purpose they want. I'm not a lawyer but the phrase, "including but not limited to" pretty much means anything at all.

What possible reason could they have for collecting the data, if not to figure out how to get more money out of you? And they want to charge you ANYTHING for this??

When I look at what this service buys me, I'm NOT impressed.
What is there that I can't already get on my iPhone?
--- I can play all the music I want
--- I can get Pandora
--- I can get all the restaurant info, and make reservations.

What I can't do is to call a person who will be my concierge, making reservations, and looking up routes to send to my nav system. I can pullover to do that.

So just what reasons are there to have Enform, that I haven't addressed?
