Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. continues adding to his stake in satellite-radio broadcaster Sirius XM Holdings Inc.

The conglomerate acquired $60.7 million of shares over three days through Thursday, according to a regulatory filing. It now owns 33.2% of the outstanding shares of Sirius XM, which also owns the Pandora music-streaming platform.

Berkshire became Sirius XM’s biggest investor last month as John Malone’s Liberty Media split off its 83% stake and combined it with a separate tracking stock in the broadcaster, of which Berkshire had been the largest holder.
