SiriusXM keeps pushing cheaper tiers - is the $5 Sports Pass actually enough, or is All Access still the one to get?
I drive a lot for work and my old SiriusXM trial just ended. The site now shows an All Music plan at $11.99 a month, All Access at $25.99, and a Sports Pass at $5 a month that now includes every 2026-27 NBA game. There is also a 3 months free offer for new subscribers. I mostly listen to sports talk and music in the car, and I do not care about Howard Stern. Is the $5 Sports Pass plus free music elsewhere enough, or does All Access earn its price for a daily driver? What do you actually listen to on it?

- Sports Pass at $5, check your listening first
Run the numbers on what you actually use. Sports Pass at $5 a month covers the NBA games and sports talk, and if music is just background in the car, a free tier elsewhere covers it. All Access at $25.99 only earns its price if you want Stern, the full channel list, and no juggling apps. Take the 3 free months on the plan you think you want, set a calendar reminder before it renews, and check your last month of listening before you pay full price.
