Big changes may be coming for XM, whose 9 million subscribers can choose from a menu of 190 satellite radio channels offering sports, music, news and talk. Its proposed merger with rival Sirius Satellite Radio — neither of the companies has yet posted a profit — cleared a major hurdle this March by winning Justice Department approval. Most of XM's subscriber growth comes from sales of new cars equipped with the company's satellite radios.
