TORONTO — Starting today, SiriusXM is offering free access to its full lineup of streaming content to listeners in North America through May 15.
Listeners can now stream 300-plus channels of news and information, entertainment, escape and companionship across ad-free music channels, plus channels of live news, faith-based content, comedy, sports talk, politics and on-demand content. The announcement was made this morning by Howard Stern while hosting The Howard Stern Show, on channel 100, from his home.
SiriusXM Select and All Access subscribers already have access to this content included with their subscriptions. However, anyone who is not already a SiriusXM subscriber can download the SiriusXM app or go to SiriusXM.ca/streamfree and start listening free of charge, with no credit card or commitment required.
The SiriusXM app is available on mobile phones, tablets and computers, as well as on a wide variety of connected devices including smart TVs, devices with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, Apple TV, PlayStation, Roku, Sonos speakers and more.
“For everyone staying at home during this time, we are providing easy access to our full streaming lineup of music, entertainment, news and information,” said Mark Redmond, CEO or SiriusXM Canada, in the news release. “While providing trusted sources for important information, we also hope we can provide entertainment and a welcome distraction through all of our content and hosts in the days ahead. And we were thrilled to be able to launch Stream Free live with Howard.”
As part of the announcement, #StayHome Radio, a feel-good, ad-free music channel, will launch today, April 1 on the streaming platform and channel 179 on most SiriusXM radios. The channel will feature happy and uplifting songs from artists such as Lizzo and Coldplay to P!nk and Bob Marley.
