I got a Sirius radio in 2004 on the $499 lifetime plan. It's not truly lifetime. It's good through three radios. I'm on my second radio and it is going strong so hopefully I will get a lot more years before the third radio eventually conks out. I'm up to about 100 months now so I'm at $5 a month at this point and it keeps going down. I used to have XM also when they were unique but dropped it once the programming was synced.
