I think what is more likely, is that many/most people already had Serius and have been enjoying the enormous wealth of programming they offer. Stern fans (I prefer Imus although I haven't listened to him in quite some time) probaby saw/see his move to Sirius as just an added benefit to their subscriptions.
I know that when my shipmates and I are far offshore, out of range of any broadcast radio, sat radio is indespensible. Even if we have 100 CDs between us, they eventually get old to listen to, get scratched and skip, and don't play very well in 10-20 ft seas anyway.
