I seem to remember that at one time XM allowed you to build your own "custom" station, e.g. 20% classic vinyl, 20% 70's, 20% 60's, etc, etc.
Am I remembering correct?
Did they eliminate this feature? I can no longer seem to find it.
Does Pandora or one of the other streaming services offer something similar?

XM might do that on the website or through the app but not at all possible over the radio.

Yes, Pandora does. As do just about all the streaming services.

Thanks. Just to clarify, I want to do it via the website. Pandora does it somewhat, it will shuffle play a list of channels, but not by percentages, which I guess would be OK. I was hoping XM might do the same as I have a subscription.

I don't think I've ever seen that level of customization?!?

That level of customization has never existed. They used to allow customization of individual channels (e.g. more rock and less pop on the 80's channel) but that feature was removed recently.

Some radios have an option where you can mix all of your presets together, but you can't set the percentages. If you have 10 presets, the mix will be 10% preset 1, 10% preset 2, etc.
