Why does SiriusXM stop streaming after a while?

We do this to avoid streaming to computers or mobile devices that have no listeners — and so that all listeners can enjoy optimum performance and quality. We send a popup notice after 8h of continuous listening without any activity. If you see this message, just click Keep Listening and audio will resume. If you don’t click through, the player will shut down within 5 minutes of the alert.
