I got a life time subscription to Sirius and am wondering if that will go in the trash once it's finalized. Hope not.

You're probably right. They can't just launch a new satellite next week tell their whole customer base that all receivers are now obsolete and everybody will have to buy a new one. I guess it's possible that they have enough resources on one of the satellites to carry all programming that they can switch the customer base over to, but more than likely the customer's receivers aren't compatible with both satellites anyway.
