How to Listen To XM Radio in Windows 7 with Windows Media Center

Maybe some people will feel so trouble if they want to listen to XM Radio because they need to have a special device to achieve it. But now the service is provided online. Now I will show how to listen XM Radio with Windows Media Center in Windows 7.

XM Satellite

To setup XM Radio in Windows Media Center (WMC), first go to Extras then Extras Gallery from the main menu.

Then click on XM Radio.

Then click on the free trial button which will open up your default browser so you can sign up for the service. You will need to enter in a user name and email address to sign up, then reply to the confirmation email they send you. Of course, There is absolutely no credit card required for the trial which is cool in case you don't like it.

You can come back to WMC and sign in after you've registered successfully with XM.

When the security warning appears, choose "Don't ask me this again" then click Send .

Now you can start listening to your favorite XM radio programming online.

Now you wil find browsing through different channels and songs seems easier with the keyboard versus the mouse in this case.

XM offers sports, talk, wide variety of music, and programming you can't get elsewhere.

Conclusion

If you want to try out XM Radio Online, this is a good opportunity to get a free trial as well. Going through WMC we did get a 7 day trial, but if you look around you can get longer free trial periods. It looks like XM is only available in the US and Canada, but we would love to hear from our friends in other countries to let us know.

Note: You can sign up directly on their site for your free trial first ,then go into WMC and set it up.
