SiriusXM Radio will have to change its cancellation practices in New York state after a court said it created a burdensome procedure for consumers and subscribers, according to New York Attorney General Letitia James.

A New York state judge found Sirius XM Holdings liable in New York Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit accusing the satellite radio and streaming company of making it too hard for customers to cancel subscriptions.

A state Supreme Court justice issued a decision this week finding that the policies of SiriusXM Radio violated the law by forcing customers to listen to lengthy sales pitches from customer-service representatives when trying to cancel a subscription.
