Saving Songs and Shows

Songs and shows can be saved by using Love while listening to a live broadcast. The Sirius S50 will hold approximately 50 hours of SIRIUS content, saved using Love and scheduled recordings, and includes the content automatically saved in My Sirius Channels.

As much as half of the total memory storage space (512MB) is available for MP3 or WMA files downloaded from your computer. Downloading files will reduce the amount of storage space available for SIRIUS content, however, storage space is always reserved for SIRIUS content. The encoding technique of your downloaded files will also affect the amount of files you can store, as higher quality audio formats consume greater storage space. Current memory usage may be checked by accessing Content Management from the Setup menu. Refer to the Memory Usage section on page 82 for instructions.
