Want to Know SiriusXM Holdings Inc’s Biggest Strength? It's Easy.

SiriusXM offers what's basically the equivalent of a cable bundle, but primarily for your car. And home-vs.-car is an important distinction to make here. When we're home sitting on our couch, we don't mind fumbling with different devices and a collection of remote controls to find the entertainment we want on the TV or laptop screen. When we're in the car, there are already enough distractions.

A full 60% of all radio listening is done in the car, according to Parks Associates. And Sirius, with just over 28.4 million subscribers, still owns only about one-tenth of that market. That means it still has room to run -- some expect it to get out to a gallop, but a trot is bit more realistic.
