Incorporated in 1990, the company began as Satellite CD Radio, Inc., but later changed its name to XM Satellite Radio Holdings, Inc. Prior to its 2008 merger with Sirius Satellite Radio, the company rebranded as Sirius XM Radio. Headquartered in New York City, New York, within the United States, Sirius XM Radio is a pioneering force in several key business segments, including satellite and online radio streaming, podcasts and talk shows, connected vehicle services, in-car entertainment, advertising, and telematics services crucial for vehicle security, tracking, and diagnostics. The portfolio of brands underpinning the company's market presence encompasses the flagship SiriusXM Radio, Pandora, which was acquired in 2019, and the podcasting brand Stitcher, brought into the fold in 2020. Expanding its vehicular services, SiriusXM Guardian delivers connected vehicle offerings, while SiriusXM Traffic, Travel Link, and NavTraffic provide essential data services catered to drivers. For maritime information, SiriusXM Marine offers weather forecasts and fishing updates. The services provided by SiriusXM have their most significant market footprints in the United States and Canada. Although streaming content from SiriusXM might reach an international audience, the company's core satellite radio services are principally available to the North American customer base.
