Opposed speedy move request[edit]

Category:Radio programs on XM Satellite Radio to Category:Sirius XM Radio programs – C2D, article at Sirius XM, new company division name after merger is Sirius XM Radio, Inc. Parent is Siruis XM Holdings, Inc. These are radio programs (shows), not channels. Funandtrvl (talk) 15:45, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The category for Radio programs on XM Satellite Radio, should really be empty, as the radio programs for the three platforms: XM radio, Sirius and SiriusXM have been merged, and are the same on all three platforms. See this link at SiriusXM. Since the company is now called Sirius XM Radio, Inc., it makes sense that the radio programs should be in the new category, under the current company name, as the programs are the same no matter which physical radio tuner that you have in your car or at home.

There are 3 platforms, depending on which physical radio that you have: XM, Sirius, and Sirius XM. These are platforms, not separate companies. But, if everyone wants to keep the current categories the way that they are, wouldn't two new categories, Category:Sirius XM Radio channels and Category:Sirius XM Radio programs still need to be created, since there are no categories yet, for the 3rd platform?
