I Think XM Radio Is Harassing Me

On May 15th, I cancelled my account. Later that same day, I unsubscribed from the 'XM Signal' newsletter and XM email alerts. About a week later, I received another newsletter, so I unsubscribed again.
Today, I got yet another email from XM. What the hell is wrong with those people? What part of remove my email address from your pathetic server, didn't they get the first two times?
They are obviously banking on people returning now that Opie and Anthony are coming back on Friday.
Attention O&A Fans,
There's so much speculation on the blogs and fan sites about O&A's return that we thought we'd take a minute to give you the facts directly.
…
This schedule will repeat until Friday morning at 6:00 a.m., because, as previously announced, Opie and Anthony will be back on XM live at 6:00 a.m. ET on Friday, June 15th. And the Virus channel's normal programming schedule will resume.
Do I care that they are back on XM? No, not in the slightest.
While I think it's great that Opie & Anthony are returning to satellite radio, I cannot, and will not, support XM Radio. Why would I support a company that chose to censor a show that was advertised as "uncensored comedy"? How do I know that management won't turn around and suspend them again in the future?
And what's with the email? How many times do I have to try and unsubscribe before I'm allowed to charge XM $12.95 for the first one, and $6.95 for each additional email I receive? How can I make them understand that when I unsubscribed the first two times, I was serious?
I don't want their email and I don't want their service. No thank you, I can think of better things to spend my money on these days.

That is a great point, how could they do that when it is supposed to be uncesored. Who knows what they will do next..

I have Sirius. At times I hear Stern talking about things he's not allowed to do. I think it has more to do with liability than censorship, though.
