Opps, Edit: I misspoke SonicTap was replaced by Music Choice, which is also used on Comcast I believe. To use iheart radio you have to go thru the app and use the free or pay version, my mistake.
Well once again Directv has changed it's music channels on it's channel guide. Going from SonicTap, which had a had pretty good catalog of songs. But sound quality wise was highly compressed in the bass, not to mention "some channels were not even in stereo". Which was told to me buy a Directv tech rep on the phone.
I had a short first listening session this morning before having to leave to catch water smugglers trying to get on the planes at the airport. Only thing I really remember that stood out was I have to crank the volume more than SonicTap. I also liked the channel line up much better with SonicTap, like no Hairband channel any more, closet thing is 80's rock.
In the past Directv had XM Radio, which I can't remember how the SQ via Directv. I still listen to it as I am an Sirius XM online and satellite subscriber. Favorite channel is Cinemagic.
Of course Pandora is still an option through Directv, while the SQ is acceptable their music catalog in movie soundtracks is kind of slim. They do have a lot of channels and a good catalog in most categories.
So will check back in the more I use iHeart radio, any others using iHeart radio via Directv in either their channel line up or through the app?
