I've always had automatic billing on my Sirius/XM service and I don't recall ever having seen an actual invoice before but for some reason I got one in the mail today. After reviewing all of the charges I notice a U.S. Music Royalty Fee for $10.87. Has anyone else notice this on your billing? I didn't know they were charging a royalty fee.

It's been going on for a few years now. If you call and renew/discuss the subscription with them they tell you very clearly about all the fees.

Thank the RIAA for this crap.

I recieved a bill last week and noticed the ROYALTY FEE charge. This was my first actual bill also. I see it as just another way to try and milk us for more money. I did negotiate another 6 months service for both of my vehicles, got it for $50.00 for both. They had a $220.00 balance on my account, they removed that balance after i told them i wasn't paying it. I'll wait a few days and see if they do in fact remove the balance and now I guess 4 days wasn't enough time to get my check to Sirius as i was driving yesterday and the music stopped and i had a message on the radio scroll that said UNSUBSCRIBED CHANNEL, call 1/888/...... YEP they cut my Sirius off. What a joke. LOL
