[QUOTE="jno, post: 630301, member: 175990"] Absolutely agree - they seem to be desperate to get people on their system but they could do better than this ... perhaps they should consider ... (1) offer some decent content of their own, despite charging ridiculous amounts of money for subscriptions over the years they have made relatively few decent programmes themselves - Noel Edmonds and Shane Richie are not really enough to justify the extra expense of S_ky One. Fair play though, if you are a footie fan, they are great and certainly cheaper than travelling to the game. If you are a table tennis fan though, you have had it. Unfortunately for them, they are also under threat from the 'illegal bit torrenters' worldwide too - why pay crazy amounts on a digibox package every month when with a bit of digging you can see it before you legally see it via the digibox...
