I will split the difference here... ESPN/Fox Sports/similar non-SiriusXM channels definitely have ads. Lithium, 90s, Highway, Coffeehouse, etc. music channels that are run by SiriusXM only have ads for SiriusXM stuff. Those are mostly programming and event ads for that station but do also include ads for other stations.
The biggest reason people want it is pretty simple: cell and radio coverage isn't great in a lot of places. For me, I like having SiriusXM, but I will adjust to not having it, so long as there's a decent way to handle music and podcasts. It would be especially nice if whatever built-in entertainment apps have an ability to pre-load stuff. If they don't, I'll make due with my phone.
Adding an aftermarket unit is not as desirable, IMO. The antenna is the biggest issue. It's never as clean a setup as factory ones.
