Will XM radio work in South East Asia - even for a few hours a day?
Does anyone have any experience traveling with their XM radios overseas? I heard some people say XM might work a few hours a day depending if the satellites happen to fly to a spot that is line-of-site to Asia, but because it is always in motion concentrating in US-coverage, it may only last a couple hours or so. Anyone here ever personally tried this?
Also, anyone know how XM vs Sirius differ - like many satellites & how they fly? I know I can get WorldSpace satellite radio for Asia, but their radios are so expensive and look so ugly!
Or is there anywhere I can rent a Worldspace radio for a month?

No this will not work. As you mention, the XM satellites are focused on North America. Their position is stationary relative to the earth, and extremely stable. They do not move in or out of range of other continents.
Worldspace is the satellite radio provider for outside of North America. Unfortunately, you can't use XM receivers with worldspace service.

The will not work. The XM satellites (rock and roll) are aimed at North America only. Sorry.
